Mixed Berry Crumble

August 1, 2011 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 15 Comments

Mixed Berry Crumble ~ Simplifying the pie with a crumble, while keeping all the sweet berry flavors of summer.

Mixed Berry Crumble

I have a slight affinity for berries-can you tell, e.g. Mini Mixed Berry Pies, Mixed Berry Smoothie. You know what I love about them? They are the perfect balance between two of my favorite contrasting flavors: sweet and tart.  

Aside from that, not much needs to be added to perfectly ripened fruit. You would think that for someone who consumes processed sugar like an SUV with 10 mpg, a fruit filled dessert would be last in line for consumption.

Wrong. Although, hmm . . . wonder if that has more to do with the limited seasonality of them. Surely, I can’t be the only one who wants what they can’t have. And when that “can’t” becomes readily available all measures of self-control—well that’s, the sentiment of those will power.

Here’s to getting all mixed up with some summer berries.

A few notes:

  • This recipe is highly adaptable, so use whatever berries you have on hand or swap one berry portion out for another depending on your availability.
  • Variations: It occured to me after this came out of the over that I should have thrown some figs in there-yum. I’m going to try that next time. I didn’t this time, but I have in the past added a little of creme de casis during the cooling period to give the berry mixture some added dimension.

Mixed Berry Crumble

Ingredients:

Berry Mixture:

  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 6oz  raspberries
  • 8oz blackberries
  • 8oz lb blueberries
  • 1 lbs cherries, pitted

Crumble mixture:

  • 1 cup flour
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoon chopped almonds, toasted
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons applesauce
  • 6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions:

1. Add water and cornstarch in a bowl and mix to combine. Place cornstarch mixture, sugar and all berries in a large 10in skillet over medium high heat. Stir mixture and heat until it starts boil. Pour mixture into a 9×13 pan and set aside to cool completely.

2 Add remaining dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Add applesauce to mixture. Add in butter and use a pastry blender or two forks and cut butter into mixture. Sprinkle mixture over cooled berry mixture. Bake at 400 degrees F for about 30-35 minutes or until filling is thick and bubbly and topping is golden brown. Remove from oven; let cool for 20 minutes.

    Gorgeous crumble and even more beautiful photos! Like you I go through a lot of sugar, but I love fruit too.

    I’m intrigued by the use of applesauce in your crumble topping. I will have to try this.

    I love a good crumble! The crispy topping is my favorite part, and I could seriously eat that all by itself sometimes.

    For the pitted cherries, do you used the canned ones or fresh cherries and just remove the pit?

Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we go simple! Who else feels this? #ad Back to school has been off to a rocky start with mixed up carpool rides to missed days from being sick. Thankfully soups like this come together quickly and easily. All you need are just a handful of fresh ingredients and some pantry staples like @enjoyrealcoco Coconut Milk and @kettleandfire Bone Broth. Both of which are @TetraPakUSA  packaged. This means I can stock my pantry and not worry about rotating the food month-to-month. The aseptic packaging solution helps unopened food have a shelf life of six months or more without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. I’m telling you it’s the little things, like food packaging—something you don’t even think about most days, that ends up being the thing that can have the biggest impact sometimes! #ProtectsWhatsGood

Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumna Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumnal picnics? To kickstart the season, the kids and I are headed to the park to enjoy an Apple Spiced Cake and warm sips of Apple Cider sweetened with our favorite pantry staple, @truvia. #ad

Truvia Sweet Complete Sweeteners are zero-calorie and made with plant-based stevia sweetness. Whether you are using the All-Purpose, Brown, or Confectioners Sweetener, they measure cup-for-cup like sugar in your favorite seasonal baked goods! 

Apple Spiced Cake 
Serves 12 

3 cups (14 oz.) self-rising flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
3 eggs
1 cup (6.25 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener 
1 cup (5.75 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Sweetener 
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup vegetable oil 
1 1/2 cups (5.5 oz.) peeled and shredded granny smith apple, about 2 large

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-12 cup bundt pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.

In a second large bowl, add the eggs, and beat until combined. Add both the Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose and Brown Sweeteners, whisk until fully incorporated. Pour in buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil, whisk until combined. 

Fold dry ingredients into the wet until smooth. Add the grated apples and fold until just combined. 

Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out free of wet batter. Transfer cake to a wire rack and let cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes. Unmold cake and let cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, dust with Truvia Sweet Complete Confectioners Sweetener. Enjoy outside with a seasonal beverage!
