Raspberry Crumble Tart

September 25

This is a great alternative to a regular crumble, but with all the flavours. You can use strawberry jam here instead of raspberry if you’d like.

  • serves Serves 12
  • time 30mins

Method

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 180ºC (350ºF). Grease a 23cm (9in) tart tin, 2.5cm (1in) in depth and set aside. Pulse the coconut, sugar, butter, flour and egg in a food processor and blitz until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Set aside a quarter of the mix and press the remaining dough into the base and sides, until you have a smooth surface. Place in the oven on the middle shelf to bake for 10–12 minutes.
  2. 2. Mix the jam in a medium sized bowl with a spoon to loosen it and fold through the raspberries. Remove the tart tin from the oven and spread the jam across the base. Use your fingertips to scatter little clumps of the reserved pastry mix across the top of the tart and pop back in the oven to cook for 15 minutes until the topping is golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow the tart to cool completely on a wire rack before removing it from the tin and onto a serving platter. Serve warm with freshly whipped cream.

Irish Oaty Apple Crumble

March 10

Crumble has to be one of the easiest desserts to prepare and it is extremely easy to adapt, using whatever fruit is in season. You can vary the ingredients for the crumble mix itself, I sometimes use wholemeal flour and nuts, though I’m a complete stickler for using jumbo oats as they really give the dessert a crunchy, nutty texture. Cream, custard or ice-cream to serve is simply essential!

Mini Rhubarb Crumble Tarts

February 21

There are hundreds of great recipes to enjoy the first rhubarb of the  season, but this is really one of my favourites.  Cooking the rhubarb  until it is tender with great flavours like vanilla, lemon and ginger  really make a great base for these little crumble tarts.  You can also use this mixture to make rhubarb crumble slices, simply add  the cooked rhubarb and crumble topping to a baking tin lined with a  basic sponge cake mixture.  Use wholewheat flour and nuts and seeds to make the crumble mixture a little healthier.  Experiment with the flavours, rhubarb goes really nicely with strawberries, the juice of an orange, star anise, and cinnamon.  Rather than making individual tarts this mixture can also be made into one large tart.

Raspberry Scones

May 29

Scones are one of the first recipes most people learn to make in Ireland, especially if you did Home Ec. in school! What I love most about scones is that you can whip up a batch in a matter of minutes, usually with ingredients you already have in the house. I like to add fresh raspberries but you can keep the dough plain or add any berries you like. A thick layer of butter and jam is essential though!
