Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Butter and line the base of a 23cm square tin. For the crumble mix, put 2 tbsp flour and 25g of the butter with the demerara sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Rub between your fingers until it resembles damp breadcrumbs.

  • step 2

    Tip the remaining flour and butter and the caster sugar, eggs and vanilla in a bowl, then beat until well combined. Lightly fold in half the apricots and raspberries, then spread over the prepared tin.

  • step 3

    Scatter over the remaining fruit, then sprinkle with the crumble mix. Bake for 45-50 mins until light golden, then cool for 10 mins and remove from the tin. Cut into squares and serve warm with cream or ice cream for dessert, or cold for tea.

question

When you say line the base, do you mean just the bottom of the tray or all of it. Thank you

I have just made this and absolutely loved it. It’s a pudding more than a cake, so best eaten when still warm. I used fresh apricots and frozen raspberries and baked it for 55 minutes in a round 24cm glass tarte dish.

I made this recipe from a BBC cook book rather than online so didn't read the comments. I used fresh raspberries and apricots and next time I will use half the amount of fruit as it took much longer to cook and was very heavy and soggy. The flavours went down very well particularly the topping, just…

My crumble looked nothing like that! It was very sticky so I have brown trails rather than a nice even layer. Not sure where I went wrong as I followed the recipe (which is unusual! )

I made this tonight and the cake mixture came up over my crumble topping whilst in the oven which disappeared inside the cake! so no crunchy topping and the cake mixture was condensed at the bottom!! nice flavour but what did i do wrong as i followed the recipe exactly?
