This is a sublime riff on a fruit crumble.\u00a0 An almond flavoured rich cookie base.\u00a0 Juicy, dark Bing cherries.\u00a0 Then a strusel topping whispering the same cookie taste.\u00a0 A cake that is not a cake but a crumble.\u00a0 A decadent dessert that sings of summer.<\/p>\n

Once you’ve pitted the cherries the cake goes together in just ten minutes. \u00a0 If you don’t have a cherry- pitter it is easy to remove pits with a chop-stick or the pointed end of a decorating pastry tip.\u00a0 Hold the cherry between two fingers and position it on a cutting board. \u00a0\u00a0 Push the chop stick or pastry tip through the center of the stem.<\/p>\n

The crumble is a combination of ground almonds, flour and butter.\u00a0 A quick whirl in your food processor.\u00a0 Press half the mixture into a cake base with a removable base.\u00a0 Sprinkle with cherries.\u00a0 Then top with the remaining streusel and pop in the oven.\u00a0\u00a0 This is the perfect summer cake for a picnic.\u00a0\u00a0 Just transport the cake in its tin.<\/p>\n
