One of our favourite things about autumn is all the delicious fruity puds that come into season. And, let’s face it, a golden crumble (with lashings of silky smooth custard) has got to be one of the all-time best British puds. To celebrate this classic dish, we’ve rounded up our five best-ever crumble recipes… happy days!
