Jumbleberry Crumble


Husband is out of town this weekend. This means I can eat whatever I want for dinner. Tonight I had chips and dip. That's right I had chips and dip for dinner. I'm shameless. But I was a little hungry still so I thought 'hmm maybe I need some dessert'. That's when I decided to make this. I figured when you have chips and dip for dinner you should have fruit for dessert. It's crazy easy to make and it actually pretty tasty. Mine was a bit too runny - I think I should have added more cornflour. I used agave nectar instead of sugar and I should have accounted for the extra liquid when portioning the cornflour...I'll know for next time I guess. Sorry maybe I should clarify in regards to the sugar..because you use sugar twice. First you use raw sugar (Nigella calls this Demerara sugar) to make the crumble topping. Then when you put the berries in the ramekin you toss them in cornflour and sugar - this is where I used the agave. And where I should have used more cornflour though. But no matter it still tasted delish.

Make this if you want a real comfort dessert. Almost like a pie but much less work!
