Rhubarb and Spruce Tip Crumble: Classic crumble of a rhubarb base with a flour and topping flavoured with chopped spruce tips.
Ingredients:
For the Crumble Topping:
100g plain flour
100g butter
100g sugar
50g fresh, young,
spruce tips, chopped
For the Base:
400g
rhubarb, washed and cut into 2cm lengths
juice of 1 lemon
150g brown sugar (or to taste)
Method:
Begin with the topping. Combine the plain flour, sugar and spruce tips in a bowl. Add the diced butter and rub into the flour mix with your fingertips, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Cover with clingfilm and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Take four small baking dishes and divide the rhubarb between them. Scatter the lemon juice and brown sugar. Scatter over the topping then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 200°C and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the rhubarb base is cooked through and the topping is golden brown.
