**Pineapple Crumble**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 medium pineapple, peeled, cored, and chopped into bite-sized pieces
– 1/3 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
– 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, combine the chopped pineapple, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Gently toss everything together until the pineapple is well coated. Transfer the pineapple mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and using your fingers or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Sprinkle the crumbly topping over the pineapple in the baking dish, covering it completely.
5. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pineapple is bubbling around the edges.
6. Once done, remove the Pineapple Crumble from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. You can enjoy it warm on its own or pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
7. Store any leftovers, if you have any, in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The crumble can be reheated in the oven or microwave before serving.
