Fruit Crumble

When you don't have time to make a pie, this is a a great alternative! Super easy and delicious! This is a very versatile recipe that can be used for just about any fruit. I use peaches or apples most often.

3-4 cups fruit, sliced
2/3 cup sugar (or less, depending on how sweet the fruit is. I use about 1/2 cup with apples.)
2 TBSP. flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon (optional, I use it with apples and peaches, but not always with other fruits.)
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/3 cup butter, melted

Place fruit in bottom of greased small casserole dish, such as an 8X8.

Mix 2/3 cup sugar, 2 TBSP. flour and cinnamon if using and sprinkle over fruit.

Mix together the 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and egg until just combined. Spread over fruit or drop by spoonfuls. Drizzle melted butter over top of crust.

Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 40 minutes, until crust is browned and fruit is bubbly.

NOTE: if using apples I will sometimes add 1/4 cup of water to the bottom of the pan with the fruit, to ensure a nice juicy crumble.

Serve warm with ice cream!! Irresistible!
