Xylitol Plum and Cinnamon Crumble
Serves: 6 Cooking time: 35 MINUTES
For the crumble:
-
100g (4oz) plain wholemeal flour
-
75g (3oz) Total Sweet Xylitol Taste before cooking – add more if you prefer a sweeter crumble
-
100g (4oz) softened butter
-
100g (4oz) oats
For the filling:
-
1kg (2.2lb) plums, halved and stoned
-
50g (2oz) Total Sweet Xylitol Depending on the sweetness of the plums and personal taste
-
3 tsp ground cinnamon
This comfort food classic is given a healthier twist
through the use of wholemeal flour, oats and
Total Sweet Xylitol. The whole grains also give
the topping a chewy almost flapjack like texture
whilst cinnamon adds flavour as well as possible
health benefits.
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 180C fan/350F/ gas mark 4.
- Blend the flour, Total Sweet and butter in a food processor to combine into thick crumbs then lightly blitz the oats into the mixture.
- Put the prepared plums in the base of a high sided oven proof dish so that they more than cover the base.
- Sprinkle with the Total Sweet and cinnamon then scatter the crumble evenly over the top.
- Bake for around 35 minutes or until the crumble starts to look golden and fruit is bubbling and soft underneath.
