  • Calorie controlled cooking spray
  • 4 large plums, halved, stones removed and thinly sliced
  • 600g blackberries
  • 1 1⁄2 tbsps plain flour
  • 1 tsp finely grated lemon zest
  • 1⁄4 tsp ground cardamom
  • 100g porridge oats
  • 55g light brown soft sugar
  • 50g butter
  • 35g pistachio

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ Fan 160°C/ Gas 4. Mist a medium baking dish with cooking spray.

Put the plums, blackberries, flour, lemon zest and cardamom in a large mixing bowl and toss gently to evenly coat the fruit. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Combine the oats, sugar, butter and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Using your fingertips, rub everything together until the mixture clumps, then stir in the pistachios.

Scatter the crumble mixture evenly over the fruit, then bake for 30-35 minutes, until the crumble is golden and the fruit filling is bubbling. Set aside to cool for 15 minutes before serving with cream, ice cream or yoghurt on the side.
