Per­fect Fruit Crumble

(serves about 4–6 breakfasts?)

6 nec­tarines or small peaches
2 dozen straw­ber­ries, hulled and halved
1 cup whole­meal flour
1 cup Demer­era sugar
1 tsp ground cin­na­mon
1/2 tsp each: ground cloves, ground nut­meg
125g/1/2 cup cold butter

Cut up all the fruit and lay it in a glass dish about 9 x 5 inches. Then place flour, sugar and spices in a Cuisi­nart, turn it on, and grad­u­ally add, in small cubes, the cold but­ter. Let the mix­ture whizz until it has the con­sis­tency of a rough, crumbly dough.

Scat­ter the crumbly dough over the fruit and bake at 180C/350F for 40 min­utes or until the fruit bub­bles and the top is brown.
