You can use any fruit to make a crumble, so opt for what is available and in season. Whilst this crumble topping differs from a traditional version, it is still a lovely option for a hassle free, mid-week pudding (or breakfast).

Ingredients

4large, very ripe pears, washed, cored and diced (it’s fine to leave the skins on)
2 teaspoonsground cinnamon
125gground almonds
125gdesiccated coconut
4 tablespoonsmaple syrup (or runny honey)
4 tablespoonslight olive oil (avoid using your best extra virgin olive oil, it tastes too strong)

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan.

Throw the diced pears into an ovenproof dish, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and mix together.

Mix together the ground almonds, coconut, maple syrup and olive oil in a bowl with the remaining teaspoon of cinnamon. It should have the consistency of damp sand.

Top the pears with the crumble mixture – no need to firm or pat it down. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
