For the crumble topping:

Ingredients (2 servings)
30 butter
50 plain white flour
20 ground almonds
1/2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
1 pinch(es) salt
1 drop of vanilla essence
40 buttermilk
20 brown sugar
10 chopped pistachios

For the filling:

Ingredients (2 servings)
400 strawberries, fresh, tops removed and cut into quarters
1 tablespoon(s) brown sugar
1 tablespoon(s) cornstarch
lemon juice from half a lemon
  • Preheat the oven to 190°C. Melt the butter and place to one side. For the crumble use a large bowl and mix the melted butter, flour, ground almonds, baking powder, salt, vanilla, buttermilk and sugar with a fork until you have a crumbly mixture.
  • Separately, mix the cut strawberries with the brown sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Place the strawberry mix in the bottom of an ovenproof dish.
  • Spread the crumble over the top ensuring it is evenly distributed. Then sprinkle the chopped pistachios on top. Place the strawberry crumble in the pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes until the crumble topping is golden brown.
  • Allow to cool briefly and then serve.
