Oh YUM!!! I love anything with ginger in it but never considered this. I think my brain is turning into grey flupp!

Add a little dessicated coconut for the best topping ever. Saw it on masterchef and ive never looked back!!!!

SR flour, block butter(not spready type or buttery spreads) and granulated sugar in 2:1:1 proportion by weight. Rubbed in by hand. I make three or four quantities at a time and freeze it in the quantity I need for one crumble.

Made plum crumble yesterday actually, using windfall plums from a neighbours garden. (She lets me pick some too but I use damaged ones up first.) Was delicious.

My mix is wholemeal Plain flour, oats & 1 oz with the butter

2:1:1 ratio for me too, chucked in the Kenwood and with some oats added at the end. I try to use block butter straight out the fridge.

We had windfall apple and hedgerow blackberry crumble on Saturday yum yum!!

I use the Delia crumble mixture- works every time. From memory I think it is 8oz plain flour, 5oz sugar, 3oz marg and a teaspoon of baking powder. Have a look at www.deliaonline to check

er - I use brioche (stale if theres any left) and grate it - or any sweet bread will do. then cut up some butter (only a couple of ounces) in tiny chunks mix it all together with a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg and sprinkle over the pudding, then sprinkle over some sugar (the more flavour in the sugar the better - but I never have any even though I dream of using muscovado for this the price puts me off!). bake but keep an eye on it as it burns quite quickly.

I use 8oz plain flour rubbed into 4oz marg (stork usually) stir in 2oz sugar (white) plus tsp (ish) of cinnamon if apple crumble (sometimes have a couple of spoonfuls uncooked )
