Title: Low fat, low sugar fruit crumble
Post by: realfood on June 09, 2009, 19:35:12
 :P Just to let you know, I have now posted a healthy low fat, low sugar or no sugar, fruit crumble recipe on my web site here :-http://www.growyourown.info/page163.html

Fruit crumbles are basically a fruit based pudding with a topping made with a crisp, crumbly type mixture. You can use any fruits that you have to hand, either fresh or defrosted from your freezer. It is possible to use combinations of fruits, such as apple and blackcurrants or blackberries. Blackcurrants and josterberries are too strong tasting when used alone, but go very well with apples or pears. They are a traditional way of using fruit in puddings.

My recipes have no added saturated or hydrogenated fats, and only 25% of the total fat of a traditional recipe. There is no added salt and a reduced 25% sugar content compared with a traditional recipe. Even this can even be replaced with a low calorie sweetener if you so wish.

You can either weigh out the ingredients or use measures which is what I prefer.
Enjoy!

I just made a strawberry and apple crumble, strawberries from my garden, bramley apples, a blob of golden syrup and packet mix.  :o
Too late for your recipe though, maybe next time.  :D

I haven't tasted it yet, it's still too hot to eat.

Love your website! Will have to try some of those recipes, mine are all guesswork and probably use loads more fat.
