Summer Fruit Crumble

Fruit Crumble 4

When the local farmer’s markets and CSA’s are brimming with berries and stone fruit, nothing tastes quite so good as a fruit pie, cobbler or crumble. This one is especially tempting because it’s gluten free and has no added sugar. Not to mention that it’s as pretty as a summer day. You can put it together in 15 minutes and cook it earlier in the day to be eaten at room temperature, or just before serving if you want to top it with ice cream. The recipe serves 6 but don’t be surprised if two hungry-types finish it off in one sitting. Doubles, triples, or quadruples easily. Enjoy! Glyn
