Vegan gooseberry whitecurrant crumble

Vegan Gooseberry and Whitecurrant Crumble

Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Course Dessert
Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 1.25 lbs gooseberries or white currants, or a mix of both (550 g)
  • 2/3 cup sugar, divided (150 g)
  • 1.5 cups flour or gluten-free flour (175 g)
  • 1/3 cup vegan margarine or coconut oil (85 g)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 180 C / 350 F / gas mark 4.
  • Top and tail the gooseberries if using (cut the top and bottom off each berry).
  • Arrange the gooseberries and white currants on the bottom of an ovenproof baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the berries and white currants with 2 tablespoons of water, then 1/3 cup of sugar.
  • To make the topping for the crumble, rub together the flour, 1/3 cup of sugar and the vegan margarine until it forms small pebbles. It should take on a breadcrumb-like texture with a few larger and smaller pebbles.
  • Sprinkle the crumble over the gooseberries/currants and place in the oven. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until the top is browned and the berries are bubbling.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm (goes well with vanilla non-dairy ice cream!).
