berry crumble

after sooo many depressing posts, it was time for some perking up =)

since my brother and sis-in-law is here, i thought of a delicious dessert that was and easy to make, BERRY CRUMBLE!

crumble recipe:

100g flour

1/2 tsp baking powder

50g cold butter, cut into cubes

3 tbsp demerara sugar

1. combine cold butter, baking powder and flour, rubbing the cold butter into the flour using only the top part of your fingers.

2. mix in the sugar and we have the crumble.

this crumble can be stored in your freezer for ages and used immediately whenever you need it.

for my berry crumble, i used blackberries, blueberries and strawberries that was randomly cut, mix in around a teaspoon of corn flour (depends on how much berries you are using) to thicken the mixture when it is being baked, a couple teaspoon of vanilla sugar, for me, i love to sprinkle some cinnamon powder on the mix before i cover the berries with the crumble toppings. Bake at 190 degree celsius for around half an hour or when you see the crumble top turning golden brown.

Serve it with some fresh cream or a scoop of vanilla ice-cream when it is piping hot. The coldness of the ice-cream soften the hotness of the berry crumble, it was sooo juicy, all the flavors of the berries fills your mouth, i am definitely making another one now! of course, with double scoops of vanilla ice-cream!
