Plum Rasperry Crumble

I have most of Ina Garten’s cookbooks. One of my favorites is “Barefoot in Paris”. I made this recipe for a cooking group I belonged to a few years back. The tasters raved and I have to admit, there is something about the combination of flavors in this recipe that just screams summer in Seattle! So, at home I call it my Barefoot in Seattle Crumble.

Our good friend, Ket, had his 21st birthday last week. He is a pastry chef, so he made his own cake. It was beyound amazing! I brought a salad made from lettuce and herbs in my garden, and then I threw this crumble together to bring along too. It was a lovely summer day in our friend’s backyard in Seattle. They grilled burgers and veggies for Ket’s party. Good friends make everything more special.

ANGELNINA’S NOTES: I like mine sweet, so I choose ripe red and purple plums. If you prefer more of a sour flavor choose less ripe plums.

If I’m lucky, maybe he’ll share the recipe. It is TO DIE FOR!

Mmmmmm

This is such a lovely dish to make. I used the raspberries we picked ourselves.

Crumble topping before baking

I didn’t have slivered almonds so I chopped whole roasted almonds. I didn’t have quick oats either so I used old fashioned. The changes didn’t make a bit of difference.

Thanks Melissa! It’s certainly a favorite of mine. I’ve been baking with the berries and now a few peaches here and there. I just love desserts made with fruit.
