Peach, Strawberry & Blueberry Mini Crumbles - Desserts - Recipes

Peach, Strawberry & Blueberry
Mini Crumbles

I love this dessert for a special dinner party.  Several hours prior to my guests arrival I mix the fruit filling, divide into the ramekins, cover and refrigerate.  Then I mix up the topping and set aside.  Once everyone is sitting down to enjoy dinner I top the fruit filled ramekins with the topping and bake. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!


Recipe

Fruit filling
1 Bag frozen sliced peaches
3/4 Cup fresh strawberries, sliced
3/4 Cup fresh blueberries
2 Teaspoons fresh lemon zest, chopped
Lemon juice from 1 lemon
1/2 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup all-purpose flour

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl add the peaches, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar and flour. Mix together and let sit 10 minutes. Gradually add the strawberries and blueberries. Divide the fruit mixture into 6-8 ramekins.

Topping
1 Cup all-purpose flour
1/3 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup light brown sugar
1/2 Teaspoon salt
1/2 Teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 Stick cold unsalted butter, diced

In a medium bowl add the flour, sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and butter.  With a hand mixer beat on low speed until the butter has formed tiny balls then sprinkle on top of the fruit filled ramekins.  Bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
