Why I Love a good Crumble!

A classic family favourite recipe using homegrown Rhubarb and Cherries. I love to batch bake Crumbles! This recipe couldn’t be easier, a handful of this, a handful of that, a sprinkle of sugar…its very basic in its elements, but no less delicious for it. I tend to bake a bunch of these mid-late summer, which I then freeze to enjoy later in the year. There is nothing like warm crumble and custard beside a roaring fire!
