For me, crumble is the ultimate pudding. Served with a jug of custard or even whipped cream, stewed rhubarb, rhubarb sauce, and shredded topping are comforting, warm, and delicious. It’s like a hug in a bowl. But I’m always looking for new crumble flavors to try and also new ways to make a crumble. And using the slow cooker is my new favorite way to make a crumble.
I’ve always loved making easy slow cooker recipes, as while they happily cook it leaves me free to move on with other things. I recently started making slow cooker desserts, starting with our collection of slow cooker fudge, but now I’m looking forward to making many more as the months go by.
What is a
crumble?
A crumble is a dish that can be made sweet or savory. Sweet varieties are usually made from stewed fruit topped with a crumbly mixture of butter, flour, and sugar, and in the United States they are called crunchy rather than crunchy. A sweet shoemaker is similar: topped with dough, biscuit or dumpling.
Can you vary this recipe? This
rhubarb crumble recipe
can be easily varied by substituting fresh rhubarb for another fruit. You can swap rhubarb for apples to make a really lovely slow cooker or use blackberries or summer fruits for a really nice berry crumble if you want. A strawberry rhubarb clay pot crumble would also be lovely!
But, rhubarb crumble,
or crunchy rhubarb as it’s called in America, is our family favorite, so it made sense that our first slow cooker crumble recipe would be rhubarb
.
Our crumble always includes oat flakes and mixed nuts to add a little extra texture and flavor to the dish. We also use melted sugar in the crumbly mixture, but you can also use brown sugar or demerara sugar if desired. The best thing about a crumble is that you can use whatever you have on hand.
