Wow, this crumble was delicious. Quick and really easy to make. It was wonderful served warm with french vanilla ice cream. I used frozen pears, raspberries and blueberries. They worked so well together. Thanks for sharing a recipe that I will make again often. Made for Whats on the Menu tag game.

This made the perfect dessert for the 2 of us. I used frozen peaches and substituted butter for the canola oil This was served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

This was a simple and delicious dessert. I wanted to try it made with fresh blueberry and fresh strawberry, so I made one ramekin of each. My husband and I both agreed the fresh strawberry was by far better. The strawberries seemed to sweeten when heated whereas the blueberries tended to lose some of their tart flavor. I'll definitely be making this again with strawberries, and my husband requested fresh raspberries next time, too. Thanks for an easy and quick dessert!

What a yummy and simple dessert. I had some fresh blueberries and the rest of the ingredients on hand, so I whipped this up in no time and it baked while we ate dinner. Perfect topped with a little whipped cream. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT6.
