Peach Crumble with Blueberries

This is the first recipe I tried, which is completely out of my comfort zone. Usually, I like food which is either very spicy or very sweet. But, this recipe is different, in this dessert we can actually taste the fruits. It can be made sweet though :P. But, I stuck to the recipe and it was good. 

Ingredients:

Flour - 200 gms
Salt - pinch
Brown sugar - 100 gms
Cinnamon powder - 1 tsp
Vanilla sugar - 2 pkts
Vegan Margarine - 100 gms
Peaches - 3
Lemon juice - 2 tsp
Blueberries - 150 gms
Vanilla essence - 1 tsp
Honey - 2 tbsp 
Powder sugar - 1 tbsp

Procedure:
  1. Add salt, brown sugar, cinnamon powder, vanilla sugar and Margarine to the flour. Mix everything together and using the tip of your fingers knead the dough gently till you get a crumbly texture. Refrigerate this mixture for about 30 mins.
  2. Take fresh peaches and chop them in to small pieces. Add lemon juice to the pieces and mix well. 
  3. Add Blueberries, vanilla essence and honey to the above mixture and mix well.
  4. Preheat the oven to about 175 C.
  5. Take about 4 to 5 clean ramekins and grease them with margarine. 
  6. Divide the crumble mixture from step-1 in to two parts. 
  7. First portion of the crumble mixture is layered on the surface of the ramekins. Then add the fruit mixture from step-3.
  8. The above is topped again with a second layer of the crumble mixture as shown in the pic.
  9. Place the ramekins in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 mins, till the crumbles turn golden brown. 
  10. Remove from the oven, let them cool down a bit and serve with a sprinkle of powdered sugar on the top.
Enjoy with family and friends.

Note: Agave syrup can be used instead of honey. This gives it a bit more sweetness.
