    Why you will love these strawberry and apple crumbles:

    SIMPLE ingredients
    EASY and QUICK to prepare
    BUTTERY topping

    🥣 Ingredients Needed

    Let's gather the ingredients and measure them before starting to bake. Mise-en-place always makes the process smoother!

    all the ingredients to make apple and strawberry crumble laid out and labelled: butter, strawberry, almond flour, apples, flour, sugar.
    • Apples: I use Gala apples but you can also use Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, or your favorite ones!
    • Strawberries: Use fresh ones preferably. The frozen ones will give a more mushy dessert.
    • Granulated sugar: You can swap for brown sugar if this is a preference but the white sugar gives a crispier result.
    • All-purpose flour: if you want to make this crumble gluten-free, use gluten-free flour. I do not recommend skipping it as it helps combine the dough.
    • Cold butter: I use salted because I love that little hint of salt in my crust with the sweetness of the apple strawberry mix. Feel free to use an unsalted one.
    • Vanilla extract (not photographed here): can be swapped for almond or lemon extract.

    👩🏻‍🍳 Preparation

    The recipe has 2 main steps: preparing the crumble and then the fruits.

    ramekins in a wood tray with a pink tea towel on the side and fresh apples

    First, let's prepare the crumble topping. In a large mixing bowl, pour almond flour and the butter, and using the tip of your fingers or a pastry blender, mix the 2 ingredients until it looks like wet sand.

    Next, add the sugar, mix some more, and same with the flour.

    Lastly, add the vanilla extract which will bind everything together. It will be the exact amount of moisture needed to combine it all. (Picture 1)

    Collage of baking steps: 1 is the crumble topping and 2 is cutting the fruits and placing in ramekins.

    Now, the next step will be to prepare your fruits (Picture 2):

    • Strawberries, wash, dry, and remove the stems. Cut in half.
    • Apples: Wash, peel and cut the apple into small pieces (I cut an eighth in 4)

    TIP: Try to cut the apple into similar sizes in order to have uniform baking.

    In the last step, distribute equally into ramekins (or a big oven dish if you prefer). Now, grab some crust, squeeze it in your hand and drop it on top of the fruit. It will have some chunks and some smaller crumbles.

    Bake for 30 minutes and allow to cool down a little before enjoying it.

    📋 Variations

    Fruits: Obviously, there are easy swaps you can be made, use pears instead of apples or other berries instead of strawberries. Keep in mind, that you might have to adjust a few minutes of the baking. Try my summery berry crumble!

    Lemon juice: Adding half a teaspoon of juice to each ramekin adds a lovely zesty flavour to the sweetness of the fruits.

    Serving suggestions: Baking dish: This apple strawberry crumble can be served in mini ramekins like shown in the pictures or in a large dish.

    Temperature: Warm or cold, take your pick!

    Extra topping: How about a ball of ice cream on top of your crumble? or a drizzle of salted caramel? Or maybe some roasted sliced almonds?

    💭 Recipe FAQs

    What is the difference between a crisp and a crumble?

    It depends where in the world you are asking. Some will differentiate with the ingredients, the crisp might include oats in the topping.

    How long can you keep it in the fridge?

    You may store it for up to 4 days.

    Why do I have to use cold butter?

    Cold butter is the way to go when baking a crust for flakiness and crispiness in this case.
