Put the oven on to 180˚C
I jar of fruit filled jam
I cup of Gluten Free self raising flour.
1/4 cup of ground almonds
1/4 cup of soft brown sugar
2 tablespoonsful of sugar
Good pinch of salt
1/4 of a block of butter.
Put jam into a baking dish of some kind.
Put flour, salt, and ground almonds into a bowl.
Take butter and grate it into the flour. Leave about an eighth of the piece for the topping. If you're feeling generous you can add more butter and sugar, but the jam will be half sugar anyway, it'll not harm the pudding.
Stir through, and add sugar. Use a fork and break it up (if you can rub in then go for it, just now my hands won't let me) the mix doesn't need to be fine as though for cake or scones, it's crumble.
Put the bowl with the jam into the microwave and zap it for a minute. Give it a stir, zap it for another minute.
(If you're using real fruit you need to get it hot and softening, add a little sugar, lemon juice, and stir through a level tablespoonful of cornflour to thicken the juice into a sauce like consistency; this is just a using up jam recipe)
The crumble goes on top of hot fruit for best results.
Spoon the crumble mixture ontop of the jam mix, leave it kind of fluffy but levelled out. Grate the last of the butter and shake over a couple of spoonsful of sugar. Sprinkle that over the top of the crumble mix.
Put the bowl on a baking sheet or baking tin that's larger than it to catch any splashes of bubbled over stuff, just in case. It's easier than having to clean the oven if you don't and it does bubble over.
Bake for .....well until it's looking golden brown and the kitchen smells wonderful
Half an hour is a good estimate, but it'll happily bake longer.
It's a jar of jam and a crumble mix. It takes all of ten minutes to get it sorted and into the oven It's a quick pudding, it's a tasty thing with custard, cream, or evap milk.
It's a Mum's in a hurry and we really need to use up this.... kind of foolproof recipe.
It can be easily bumped up a level. Add flaked almonds, or rolled oats for more crunch, add in vanilla essence or spices if you like, but kiss works fine
It also works with marmalade to make a really good citrus type dessert. Stir through some chocolate chips into the crumble to that one though.

p.s. If you're using real flour, add quarter of a cup of rolled oats or dessicated coconut if you don't have ground almonds to hand. Gluten free flour needs the almonds we think, but real flour isn't so needy.
