Rhubarb And Strawberry Crumble

-

Written by McDonald, T.  |  Date 21th of April 2025

Filled with rhubarb and strawberries and topped with a biscuit crumble.  This has got to be one of the best desserts in the world! It's so comforting and easy to make.

Notes

  • Self-raising flour is fine if you have nothing else. 
  • For some extra fun, add a small glass of sherry! 
  • I used tinned strawberries and rhubarb.

Makes 1 medium-sized dish 

Time – 5 minutes to prepare and 35 minutes to bake.  

Ingredients

Filling 

  • Tin of rhubarb x 1
  • Tin of strawberries x 1
  • Vanilla extract x 1/2 tsp 

Crumble

  • Plan flour 100 g
  • Vegan butter 35 g
  • Sugar x 2 tsp
  • Salt x 1/4 tsp
  • Rolled oats x 3 tbsp

Method

Rhubarb and Strawberry filling

  1. Drain the rhubarb and strawberries and add to a baking dish. 
  2. Add the vanilla extract and mix.

Crumble

  1. Tip the flour into a mixing bowl.
  2. Cut the butter into cubes and add it to the mixing bowl. 
  3. Add the salt.
  4. Mix together with your hands and rub the butter and flour through your fingers until you get a breadcrumb like look. 
  5. Add the oats and mix them in with your hands.
Crumb will end up looking like breadcrumbs.

Add the crumble on top of the filling

  1. With a tablespoon, add the crumble mix to the top of the apple filling and spread it out evenly.  
  2. Bake in a preheated oven on the lower middle shelf at 170 °C for about 35 minutes.

Written by  McDonald, T.    |  Updated 24th of March 2024 Yorkshire puddings are a tasty part of Sunday dinner in the UK not to mention Christmas and Easter.  With this in mind, a vegan alternative is required to satisfy the patriots dinner plate.  I looked for a long time and tried many different recipes, but in the end I had to alter the best basic vegan recipe to make it perfect.

Viking Skause

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 12th of December 2022 Abstract  Skause is a Viking stew, which contained, boiled meat, vegetables and Mead , an alcoholic drink made from fermented honey and included spices (What Viking Diets Were Really Like, 2021).  I wanted to make something vegan that a meat eater would think of trying.  Being as meat eaters, especially men, see themselves as being a little on the wild side, I needed something that would appeal to the old world fun vibe.  So, when I was looking through old recipes for inspiration, the Viking food immediately jumped out at me.  Bearing in mind I need to appeal to both vegans and especially non-vegans, the mock meat had to be good.  Unfortunately, the mock meat I intended to use, Naked strips, was not available, so I had to improvise.  This resulted in the idea to add three different types of mock meat to the dish.  I struggled to find suitable mock meats at such short notice. ...

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 23rd of December 2022   Getting frustrated with the lack of vegan options lately?  Well, this one is so easy to solve.  It has just four ingredients and is ready in minutes, and you can make it as strong as you like.  In addition, it goes great with Christmas pudding or Christmas cake and is fine hot or cold. Notes I used almond milk because almond and brandy flavours go nicely together. Keeps for about a week in an airtight container in the fridge. Check the brandy is vegan. Makes 5 – 6 servings. Time, 10 minutes.   Ingredients 400 ml of vegan milk 60 g of sugar 25 g of cornflour 6 tbsp of brandy Method Except for 2 tablespoons of the vegan milk, boil the milk with the sugar while stirring until the sugar has dissolved.  Take off the heat. Mix the cornflour with the remaining milk and whisk it into the hot milk and sugar and put back on the heat. Keep whisking. Bring back to the boil and remove.  Stir in th...
