how to cook Easy Coconut Plum Crumble?
STEP 1
To start, preheat your oven to 200°C (400⁰F). Take slightly thawed plums and cut them lengthwise into four pieces.
TIPS: Now, let’s talk about plums. If you can’t find frozen ones, don’t worry! Fresh fruits work just as well. Just make sure to wash the plums, cut them in half lengthwise, and remove the pits. Easy peasy!
STEP 2
In a small bowl, combine cornmeal, sugar, and vanilla sugar, and give it a good stir.
TIPS: If you don’t have ready-made cornmeal, no problem! You can make your own by grinding corn grits (polenta) in a coffee grinder. It’s a simple solution that will save you a trip to the store.
STEP 3
Next, place the sliced plums in a large bowl and add the flour mixture. Gently mix everything together.
STEP 4
In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, coconut shreds, chilled butter, and walnuts, mix.
STEP 5
Mix it all up using your fingers until it resembles bread crumb pieces. Once done, pop the topping in the refrigerator.
TIPS: When it comes to butter, make sure it’s chilled and not softened. Softened butter will mix in with the other ingredients and give you a regular dough instead of a delicious topping. So, keep that butter nice and cold!
STEP 6
Grease two 15cm baking dishes with butter. Place the plum filling into the prepared dishes.
STEP 7
Spread the cooled topping evenly over the plum filling.
STEP 8
Now, place the dishes in the preheated to 200°C (400⁰F) oven. Bake for about 30 minutes until it turns a lovely golden brown.

STEP 10
