Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
-
In a large bowl, combine the sliced plums with the granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Toss gently to coat the plums evenly with the spice mixture.
-
Transfer the spiced plums to the prepared baking dish, spreading them out in an even layer.
-
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, oats, and brown sugar.
-
Add the diced cold butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top of the spiced plums in the baking dish.
-
Bake the Plum and Spice Crumble in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the plum filling is bubbling around the edges.
-
Remove the crumble from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
-
Serve the Plum and Spice Crumble warm, either on its own or with a dollop of freshly whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
