Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Spread all the ingredients for the crumble (except for the egg whites) on a baking tray. Bake for 15 minutes until golden and crisp.
- When toasted, remove from the oven, cool slightly, then transfer to a mixing bowl. Turn the oven down to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Lightly whisk 2 egg whites with a fork until frothy, then fold just enough white into the crumble to bind it together.
- Put the crumble back into the oven for 10 minutes to dry the egg whites and create crunchy bite-size pieces.
- Put all ingredients for the brambles (except the whisky) in an ovenproof dish and bake for 5-10 minutes until the brambles are softened but still keep their shape. Drizzle the brambles with a good splash of whisky when they come out of the oven.
- Sprinkle the crumble over the top of the brambles and serve with vanilla ice cream.
