In a recent Corporate team building cooking class we made one of the quickest and easiest desserts. Fruit Crumble is a firm favourite, served hot or cold. Make it with whatever fruit is in season – apples, pears, rhubarb, apricots, peaches, nectarines and plums. Delicious served with hot custard in winter, or ice-cream and crème fraîche in summer.
