Method
- Heat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/ gas 4. Fill a 1.5 litre ovenproof dish with the prepared fruit and apples. Scatter over the sugar.
- For the crumble, put the flour and sugar in a mixing bowl and add a pinch of salt. Melt the butter in a microwave or saucepan and pour over the flour mix, then stir with a spoon to form little biscuity lumps of mixture. Stir in the marzipan and almonds, then scatter the mixture over the fruit in the dish.
- Bake in the top of the oven for 45-50 minutes until the top is golden and smells biscuity and the fruit bubbles through. Stand for 5 minutes, then serve with custard or cream.
