300 gram mixed frozen berries

6 ripe pears, peeled, cored, chopped

810 gram can plums, drained

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoon caster sugar, plus 3/4 cup (165g) extra

2 tablespoon cornflour

1/3 cup (75g) firmly packed brown sugar

1/3 cup (50g) plain flour

2 tablespoon self-raising flour

80 gram unsalted butter, cold, cubed

1/3 cup (55g) blanched almonds

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan. Grease six 300ml ovenproof dishes.

2.Combine fruit, vanilla, caster sugar and cornflour in a bowl. Spoon into prepared dishes.

3.Place brown sugar, plain flour and self-raising flour in a bowl. Using fingertips, rub in butter until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Scatter over fruit mixture to cover. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden and bubbling.

4.Meanwhile, line a baking tray with foil. Scatter over almonds and bake for 5-8 minutes, until lightly toasted.

5.Heat extra sugar and 1/3 cup water in a small pan on low, stirring until dissolved. Increase heat to medium and bring to boil. Boil, without stirring, for 5-8 minutes, until light caramel. Remove from heat and let bubbles subside. Pour evenly over almonds. Stand for 10 minutes, until set.

6.Roughly chop praline. Scatter over crumble and serve with ice-cream.
