Lots of plums and apples - plum and apple crumble?

[Alicetheinvisible]

Title pretty much sums it up

Got to make a pudding for tomorrow evening, have got loads of apples and plums. Would a plum and apple crumble work or should i just stick to the one?

Thanks

yes, dh is always going on about one he made in 1998ish which has apparently never been bettered by any crumble he has eaten since

I made a one last weekend, it was lovely, go for it!

Ooh, yes, delicious! Lovely, lovely plum season.

ooh yes

also, apple charlotte

plum jam

plum upside down cake

tarte tatan

Lovely thanks.

Sethstark - i think you should get your DH to try out the recie again

Yes I did one last week and threw in some free blackberries for good measure. :)

I took a portion to work and people were drooling over it while it was in the fridge (not literally, obviously, well I hope not!)

Alice - the fruit was all from the garden of his old house so it wouldn't be the same apparently! I have planted some trees here but they're not yet very productive.
Enjoy yours

What a rubish excuse! Do you think he is worried it won't live up to the hype?

Both my Dad and FIL brought round a load of apples, my dad also brought me some plums and pears (all from his garden) and FIL brought half a fridge full of green beans, tomatoes and rasberries (from his garden). Crumbles, chutneys and rasberry vodka all on the menu!

also plum and apple cake very good and plum and apple chutney

Plum Tarte Tatin is good. No, not a mix up. If you halve and stone the plums, place them rounded side down in the Tarte Tatin dish, and then put a small piece of marzipan in each of the hollows where the stones came out before poping the pastry on top..........delicious!

Not pudding, but if you have some spares - plum fairy cakes are ace. Make standard victoria sponge mix (2 or 3 egg mix gives plenty of cakes). Cut some plums into smallish pieces. Dollop a bit of mix into a paper case, add 2 or 3 of bits of plum, then more cake mix. Cook as normal fairy cakes. Works really well with damsons/wild plums that are a bit too sour for crumble/stewed fruit.

Might try that, then i won't feel too guilty about DD and i wolfing down a load of cake

I made a really easy crumble topping by just whizzing up some (Tesco value) flapjacks in the food processor and shoving on top of the fruit - really simple and delicious.

Souds good, will put oats in anyway, but will try that sometime.
