I made this crumble this afternoon with some rhubarb that I froze earlier in the year. For the topping I used 75g ground quinoa 50g ground almonds 75g plain white gluten free flour 100g pure gf vegan spread 50g Demerara sugar whizzed up in my food processor spread on top of the rhubarb given a dusting of buckwheat flakes for a bit of extra flavour. And baked for approx 40 mins @180C
This is a basic crumble mix of of half fat to flour and half sugar to fat. I use a coffee grinder to grind up quinoa seeds as quinoa is a complete food as its packed with nutrients. And I'm looking forward to having some later.

Hi Jerry, This looks amazing! 😋👍
This is something I think I can do 🤔 but what if I don’t have Rhubarb 😅, what else can I replace and would that make the dish? 😂
I like and have quinoa, almond, GF flour and sugar😁👍
Thank you Jerry for sharing your recipe and Enjoy! 😊🙏🌺

Hi Koko, thanks for saying this and you can use any stewed fruit in a crumble, so apples or pears are great in a crumble and it’s a lot easier than making pastry. 😊

Thank you Jerry for your suggestion. 🙏
For some reason I thought Rhubarb is vegetables. 🤔
Definitely this will be on my soon to conquer in the kitchen list 😁👍
Hi Jerry. This is another thing that we used to have at school dinner, stewed rhubarb and custard, even the thought of it still makes me shudder! A friend gives me some from her garden every year and I just don't have the heart to tell her that I pass it on to a neighbour🙈
Hey lucky neighbour! My only memory of any school meal is a fudge tart which I thought was amazing and you reminded me of that which put a smile on my face.
One of the desserts we had at school was gypsy tart which I didn’t like when I first tried it, but strangely I grew to like it. I think one of the ingredients was condensed milk. 🙂
I always liked semolina and rice pudding at school or any kind of milky pudding and when I was a school meals supervisor the kitchen staff would always put me aside a bowl of them😋
Poor you to keep up the facade but its really sweet and kind that you havent burst her bubble. Btw, your mention of custard brought back childhood memories. My mom added cardamom to hers.
This looks really good and I hadn't had rhubarb in a long time. I'm going to have to try and see if it can be done in the next few weeks and if we have everything needed. I hope you enjoyed it.
Looking absolutely yummy and I'm sure it was delicious to eat. In the past when I could use butter, I've made a crumble using oats, gala apples, cinnamon, brown sugar and butter.
Thanks Imaaan your crumble sounds really good and I use butter sometimes but avoid oats so we all have foods that we avoid for one reason or another,
That makes for a lovely crisp and light topping Jerry. I just love rhubarb. I remember when as a child we used to eat it raw, when sweets were not available during the last years of food rationing. Sugar was beginning to be available again and mum would give us a stick of rhubarb and a paper twist of sugar for dipping. But I'd much rather have it gently cooked and in a lovely crumble or tart now, for sure!
Hi Sue, thank you for this I've always liked sharp fruits like rhubarb and gooseberries is another favourite as we grew our own gooseberries when I was a child so I have many fond memories of this. 😀
Now gooseberries they are a real treat when I was a child they used to grow wild around where we lived along with blackberries, raspberries and logan berries, 😋
When I was a child we had raspberries, blackcurrants and gooseberries growing in the garden. I remember eating plump gooseberries straight from the bush when they were warmed by the sun. More very happy memories. 😊
Blackcurrants, I'd forgotten them, many times we'd go home from playing out with purple stained fingers as evidence of what we'd been up to, eating fruit without washing it🙈
Yes, delicious but hard to get the stain out. We used to make blackcurrant jam with ours. We’re very fortunate to have some lovely childhood memories BTCCET. 😊
Hey Hidden you can't beat an apple crumble thats for sure. 🍎😊
Yes! My dad was right about most things. He was great. Like you Happyman, he loved his gardening and cooking. He made excellent custard tarts and cherry pies. 😊
I’ve just seen that you can tweak the recipe by adding caramelised banana. I think that would work for me. I also think caramelised banana works well with chicken and with bacon. Don’t know what you think. 🙂👍or👎
