Many people would agree that the best part of a fruit crumble is the crumble, which when mixed with a nice dollop warm custard is divine. The fruit is simply there for variety and interest. Why, I ask, can't we have a crumble crumble, consisting of pure crumbley heaven? Sounds like a good idea to me.

Is this a recipe? <Thinking> |
|
| |
You can make your crumble anyway you want. Why is this an idea? |
|
| |
crumble = flour + lard + sugar. not really anything to get excited about. now lemon meringue pie! |
|
| |
Too many cookies spoil the crumble. |
|
| |
And too many broths spoil the cook. |
|
| |
Crumble crumble? Yumble yumble. Croissant. |
|
| |
I prefer chocolate cake. But only if there's no lasagne. |
|
| |
Yes please, and a piece of chocolate cake without lasagne and a chocolate-covered crumble and some cheesecake. |
|
| |
What's all this crumbling about? |
|
| |
One sugar, please. No milk. Or water. Or tea. |
|
| |
FarmerJohn has hit the nail on the head there, i.e. fruit does get in the way of a good cheesecake. It also spoils an otherwise delicious trifle, and positively ruins the most delectable of upside-down cakes. Down with fruit. Now if only everything was toffee flavoured... |

|

I beg to differ. But indeed. lemon meringue pie made with Hooch is quite delightful. |
|
| |
Croissant for you, chard. |
|
| |
Yummy! I'll have some, here I'll give you a croissant in exchange. |
|
| |
Rods, I'd prefer coffee if you don't mind. |

I agree, the fruit is not necessarily the star ingredient in crumbles - but I don't think you could enjoy crumble crumble entirely on its own - it needs something, fruit, cream, custard - it doesn't matter. I'm wondering whether there is such a thing as a custard crumble. Could be quite nice. |

Poor man's custard crumble: |
|
| |
1. Empty a packet or two of custard cream biscuits into a plastic bag. Tie bag. |
|
| |
2. Pick up bag. Smash bag against table. Repeat until contents of bag are suitably crumbly. |
|
| |
3. Untie bag. Pour contents of bag into bowl. Enjoy. |
|
| |
Yes. And cheesecake. Infact forget the crumble or the crumble crumble and just give me cheesecake and a spoon.. Soon to be followed by a diabetic coma, but i'm willing to cross that bridge when it comes. |
