Crumble

Crumble is a type of dessert that is made up of three parts: fruit, a sweet and crumbly topping, and sometimes a little bit of sugar or spices. This dessert is usually baked in an oven or microwave until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is soft and juicy.

Now, let's break down those three parts.

Fruit: This is the juicy and sweet part of the dessert. Popular fruits for crumbles include apples, berries, and peaches. The fruit is usually chopped up and mixed with a little sugar and spices to bring out its natural flavors.

Topping: The topping is what makes the dessert 'crumbly'. This is usually a mixture of flour, butter, and sugar that is rubbed together until it is crumbly and pebbly. Some recipes also call for the addition of nuts or oats to give the topping a bit of texture.

Sugar and spices: To make the crumble even more delicious, a little bit of sugar and spices are added to the fruit mixture. Cinnamon is a popular spice, but nutmeg and ginger are also good options.

When you put all three of these parts together, you get a delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion – whether it's a family dinner or a birthday party. So next time you see a crumble on the menu, you'll know exactly what it is and how it's made!
