Strawberry Blueberry Crumble Recipe Final Dish Presentation

Growing up, my grandmother had a knack for creating the most memorable desserts, especially during the berry season. I fondly remember spending sunlit afternoons in her garden, picking fresh strawberries while she imparted her timeless baking wisdom. It was her recipe that inspired this crumble—the exact harmony of flavors she would have loved. It’s become a family tradition to make this treat whenever berries are at their peak.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This crumble is perfect for berry season, packed with fresh strawberries and blueberries that burst with natural sweetness. It’s simple enough for beginner bakers, yet impressive enough for entertaining. The crumb topping adds a buttery crunch that perfectly complements the soft and juicy filling, making each bite utterly satisfying.

Ingredients Notes

To make this crumble shine, sourcing high-quality, fresh berries is key. Visit your local farmer’s market or grocery store to find vibrant red strawberries and plump blueberries. If fresh berries aren’t an option, frozen ones work beautifully—just ensure they are fully thawed and drained before using.

Strawberry Blueberry Crumble Recipe ingredients

The crumble topping is made with all-purpose flour, sugar, and butter. For a healthier version, consider substituting half the flour with oats or almond flour. You can also add nuts like chopped almonds or pecans for extra crunch.

Recipe Steps

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to ensure an easy release later.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine sliced strawberries, blueberries, sugar, and a hint of lemon juice. Gently toss everything together until the berries are well coated and the sugar is dissolved.

Step 3

Prepare the crumble topping by mixing flour, sugar, and cold cubed butter in a separate bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend them together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Spread the berry mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the berries, ensuring it’s distributed evenly to cover all the fruits.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Storage Options

To store leftovers, allow the crumble to cool completely before covering it with plastic wrap or transferring it to an airtight container. It will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To freeze, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil for up to 3 months. Reheat using an oven preheated to 325°F (160°C) until warmed through.

Variations & Substitutions

For those with dietary restrictions, this recipe can be easily adapted. Replace regular flour with gluten-free flour blends or almond flour. To vary the flavor, try adding a handful of raspberries or blackberries, or incorporate a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg into the crumble topping for a spiced twist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh ones?
Absolutely! Frozen berries can be a convenient and equally tasty alternative to fresh ones. Make sure to let them thaw completely and drain any excess liquid to avoid a watery filling. Adjust the sugar content to account for any sweetness in the frozen berries.

Is it possible to prepare the crumble ahead of time?
Yes, you can definitely prepare the crumble in advance. Assemble the dish and keep it covered in the refrigerator for up to one day before baking. Alternatively, prepare and freeze it prior to baking, then bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time as needed.

What can I serve with this crumble?
This crumble is versatile and complements a variety of toppings. Classic options include a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream. For a slightly tangy contrast, try serving it with a dollop of Greek yogurt or crème fraîche.
