Ingredients :

  • 50 g (1.8 oz) cold butter
  • 50 g (1.8 oz ) brown sugar
  • 50 g (1.8 oz ) Almond powder or hazelnut powder or a blend of both (you can substitute with flour).
  • 50 g (1.8 oz ) flour
  • 2 pinches Guerande fleur de sel French sea salt

Instructions :

  • Preheat oven to 160°C ( 320° F)
  • Combine the cold butter, brown sugar, flour and almond powder with your fingers or in a food processor until you get small lumps.
  • Pass through a large-hole grater or sieve onto a baking tray covered with baking parchment.
  • You can just crumble it coarsely with your fingers.
  • Bake it like this on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or generously sprinkle it over fruits or the top of muffins before baking.
  • You can bake the crumble on a baking tray and then use it in verrines, on ice creams, waffles etc...
  • I also use it in reconstituted crisps as a base for desserts.
  • It's super tasty and a perfect replacement for the praline crunch.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until it has a nice golden brown.
  • Allow to cool.
  • The crumble dough freezes well raw or baked.
  • I hope this crumble dough recipe will be useful for many desserts.
