Method

  • step 1

    Melt the butter in a pan, then add the pears, rhubarb, sugar, cinnamon and cloves, and cook over a low heat for 10-12 mins or until just tender. Divide the rhubarb between 4 ovenproof dishes (or use 1 large dish) and set aside.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. To make the crumble topping, tip all the ingredients into a food processor and pulse to crumbs. Sprinkle the topping over the fruit filling, then bake for 30 mins or until golden brown on top. Serve with vanilla ice cream or double cream.

question

HI, how large a baking dish would one use for 4 people?

Hi, thanks for your question. Just make sure it's large enough to fit the filling and topping adequately. The exact size doesn't matter too much in this recipe, but roughly 20cm x 20cm or equivalent should be about right (the smaller the dish, the thicker the crumble layer). We hope this helps. Best…

question

It says this recipe is freezable. Would I completely cook it first and then freeze? Also, should I defrost it and then cook.....more info please : )

Thanks for your question. You can freeze this before (or after cooking if you have leftovers). If cooking for the first time from frozen, we'd suggest lowering the oven temperature to 160C and cooking for longer. We can't give exact timings without testing but would recommend checking the crumble…

Lovely and tart. Used up the last of our rhubarb and swapped hazelnuts for porridge oats. I also left out the cinnamon because it's hated by one of my offspring. (Next time I'll use hazelnuts and cinnamon).
