Tried and Tested: Apple and Plum Crumble

I had to hurry to take a picture - it is going fast!

I was watching Nigella on TV last night and got inspired to make my own Apple and Plum Crumble as a Friday evening treat but with much less butter and sugar than she did. In my opinion it really isn't necessary to "drown" the crumble in that much butter or sugar! I prefer to taste the fruit - even if it might be a bit tart - and not just the juices mixed with butter and sugar.
This is real comfort food when it is cold and rainy outside.

 I peeled, cored and cut up and put in an ovenproof dish

which had been sprayed with FryLight (or use some oil)

3 apples

3-4 plums
a handful of raisins

a handful of chopped up almonds

and gave it a good dusting of cinnamon

I then made the crumble and mixed by hand (literally):

50 grams cold butter

80 grams flour

50 grams oatmeal

30 grams demerara sugar (or Splenda)

and spread this lightly over the fruit.

Bake in the oven on 180 degrees for about 25 mins.

I served it warm with a good dollop of vanilla and chocolate fatfree yoghurt (Mullers Light) which worked really well.

If you don't mind the extra calories it would go well with some good quality vanilla icecream/custard/whipped cream.
