Our tips for Crumbles

  • Freeze crumble mixes

    When making fruit crumbles, make extra topping and store it in a freezer bag. It is then ready to sprinkle over fruit with no need to thaw it first.

  • Save energy

    If you are using oven for 1st course, also cook a pudding in the oven, even if you only freeze the pudding for reheating in the microwave for a meal on a different day. Try never to waste the empty space in your oven! After switching off oven, I also leave the door open whenever possible. Might as well use the surplus heat to heat the kitchen!
