pie or crumble?

[hatstand]

dh took dds blackberry picking yesterday. so we are arguing over whether to make a pie or a crumble. Maybe it's just me but I just don't get pie. Who on earth would have pie when you can lovely crumbley, caramelly, nutty crumble? and do you have it with creme fraiche, custard or ice cream? or do you just have three servings so you can have one of each? mmmm my mouth is watering

crumble, definitely

Crumble. No contest.

crumble for blackberries

although pie for apples (with vanilla ice cream, natch)

Crumble with lashing of custard most definitely

crumble crumble crumble mmmmmmmmmmmm

crumble and custard

creme fraiche = hideous affectation

it may be hideously affected but it TASTES GOOD

and what about blackberry and apple?

blackberry and apple can go pie or crumble IMO

but still with custard, or creme fraiche for the ones who feel guilty if they have custard

Yum, yum, yum -can we come to tea hatstand ?
You are, obviously, one of those supper-dooper-brilliant - 'I can make crumble mummies' - I wish I was more like you !
crumble, crumble - yes please, with custard & a dollop of ice-cream aswell.
Heaven !!!!

Crumble definately with custard, ice cream and cream given the chance. Mmmmm.
I put porridge oats in with my crumble and it is yummy, has anyone else tried this?

My crumble is just pastry without the water added (with sugar and cinnamon), so much easier than pastry as there is no refrigerating and rolling out required.

Oh definetely Crumble with lashings of cream and custard!!!!

anyone want to know how to do crumble without all that tedious sticky finger rubbing in business?

Crumble

Crumble. No contest.

Crumble, of course!
(but men are funny about pies)

Loathe custard. Yuk. Like cream.

crumbel with ice cream and creme fraiche if you ask me!

Crumble every time, if only because it's so easy. Hatstand buy a Magimix, bung all the stuff in and blitz for a few seconds.

Definitely crumble and with custard. I like proper puddings every time

Crumble every time - custard or thick cream mmm

Crumble yum,

Yes to oats and yes to cinnamon too, and also brown sugar sprinkled on the top.

Quite fancy rhubarb crumble and custard now. Proper tinned custard too, none of that fancy home made stuff

Pastry is just so yucky compared to a crumble topping.
