A classic winter pudding, easy and delicious.
For the crumble
100g plain flour
50g rolled oats
100g butter, cut into cubes
50g golden caster sugar
For the fruit filling
400g strawberries, halved if large
100g golden caster sugar
1½ tbsp cornflour
500g mixed berries
Ice cream, fresh cream (whipped) or custard, to serve
Fresh mint, garnish
Preheat the oven to 200°C / 400°F / Gas mark 6.
Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, add the flour, oats, butter and sugar and squash everything together with your fingers into a crumble texture.
Layer the crumble over the baking tray and bake for 10 minutes stirring and roughly breaking up halfway through cooking.
While the crumble is cooking, put the strawberries, sugar and corn flour in a large pan.
Mix together and cook over a medium heat until the strawberries just start to release their juices and soften, then stir in the remaining berries.
Transfer to an ovenproof baking dish.
When the crumble topping is cooked, sprinkle it over the fruit, and place back in the oven for a further 15 minutes until bubbling and golden.
Leave for 5 minutes before serving with ice cream, whipped cream or custard and top with mint if you like.
