Raspberry Crumble

Raspberry Crumble

It’s hard to resist the hot pink beauty of fresh raspberries when they’re in season. Tart, intensely fruity and even subtly floral, raspberry’s unique flavor shouldn’t be masked under a ton of heavy ingredients. That’s why we love baking these berries in our raspberry crumble.

A thick layer of fresh, soft-baked, jammy raspberries is topped simply with a buttery crumble that only enhances the raspberry’s special flavor profile. Make the most of your berry haul by learning how to make raspberry crumble—it’s so delicious that it’ll become a summer staple in your house year after year.

Raspberry Crumble Ingredients

Raspberries: You’ll need 6 cups fresh raspberries, equating to 3 pints. Wash the berries gently right before using them, avoiding the common berry mistake of washing them as soon as you buy them. That will make the berries go bad more quickly!
Sugar: We sweeten this raspberry crumble filling and topping with granulated sugar. Feel free to use brown sugar if that’s all you have in your pantry and you want to save a trip to the store.
Cornstarch: We thicken the filling with a bit of cornstarch. Without it, the filling would be a runny, soupy mess, so don’t skip this ingredient!
All-purpose flour: We’ve found that the best type of flour for a crumble or streusel topping is all-purpose flour for its structure and softness.
Cinnamon: Sweet, cozy cinnamon warms up the flavor of the raspberry crumble topping.
Butter: You’ll need 1-1/3 sticks of butter for the topping. Cube up the butter and stick it in the fridge so it stays nice and cold until you’re ready for it.

Directions

Step 1: Make the raspberry base

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the raspberries in a large bowl, and sprinkle them with 1/3 cup sugar and the cornstarch. Toss everything together gently to coat. Transfer the raspberry mixture to a greased 2-1/2-quart baking dish and evenly spread the mixture to all four corners and edges.

Step 2: Add the crumble topping

Combine the all-purpose flour, 1-1/2 cups sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cut in the butter until it’s crumbly. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the berries.

Step 3: Bake and serve

Bake the raspberry crumble, uncovered, until the filling is bubbly and the topping is lightly browned, 45 to 50 minutes. Serve the crumble warm.

Editor’s Tip: We love this recipe with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of homemade whipped cream on top!

Recipe Variations

Use your favorite fruit: Like any crumble recipe, this raspberry crumble is highly adaptable. So adaptable that you can really use any fruit in place of the raspberries or add another fruit to the mix. Just make sure to reduce the amount of raspberries and make up for it with the other fruit. For example, if you want to make a raspberry-blueberry crumble, use 3 cups raspberries and 3 cups blueberries instead of 6 cups raspberries.
Add nuts: Toss nuts into the topping for extra crunch. Almonds, pecans and hazelnuts are best with raspberries.
Create more flavor: Introduce new flavors like clove and ginger into this raspberry crumble. Splash vanilla extract into the filling for a blooming, floral-sweet flavor.

How to Store Raspberry Crumble

Store your raspberry crumble leftovers in the fridge for up to four days. You can either wrap the pan in storage wrap or transfer the leftovers to an airtight container. Just make sure the crumble has cooled to room temp before storing it.

Can you freeze raspberry crumble?

Yes, you can freeze a baked raspberry crumble. Once the crumble has cooled completely to room temperature, cover the pan with storage wrap and a layer of aluminum foil, or transfer the crumble to an airtight container. Freeze the raspberry crumble for up to one month. Thaw it overnight in the fridge.
