Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Peaches (fresh) 6
Strawberries 120g
Granulated sugar 80g
Butter (cold, cubed) 50g
Vanilla bean (half) ½
Brown sugar 40g
Lemon juice 30ml
Beer (light) 150ml
Butter (for the crumble) 140g
All-purpose flour 140g
Almond flour 120g
Brown sugar (for the crumble) 120g
Egg yolk 1
Ground cinnamon 2g

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crumble Topping:
    Begin by making the crumble topping. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and brown sugar. Add the cold butter, cut into small cubes, and the egg yolk. Sprinkle in the ground cinnamon.

    Use a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients together. Be sure to work the mixture gently, leaving it crumbly and not fully combined. You should end up with a sandy, crumbly texture.

  2. Chill the Crumble:
    Let the crumble dough rest in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to firm up and allow the butter to stay cold, which will ensure a crisp topping.

  3. Prepare the Fruit:
    While the crumble rests, peel the peaches and cut them into slices. In a large skillet, melt 50g of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, and the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean. Toss the peaches gently to coat in the buttery sugar mixture.

    Let the peaches cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften. Once the peaches are tender, pour in the beer and allow the liquid to evaporate. Once the beer has mostly evaporated, remove the pan from heat and set the peaches aside to cool.

  4. Cook the Strawberries:
    In a small saucepan, place the washed strawberries, cut into quarters, and pour in the lemon juice. Cook them on low heat for about 2-3 minutes until they soften and release their juices.

  5. Assemble the Crumble:
    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Spread the chilled crumble topping evenly on the prepared tray, ensuring the crumble pieces are separated. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the crumble turns golden brown and crispy.

  6. Serve:
    Once the crumble is ready, let it cool for a few minutes. In serving bowls, place the warm peaches and pour over the cooked strawberries. Top with a generous amount of the baked crumble.

    For an extra touch, serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired. Enjoy this refreshing and comforting dessert as a perfect way to end your meal!
