Apricot and Marzipan Crumble
Apricot and Marzipan Crumble pairs sweet-tart apricots with rich marzipan and a crisp flour-butter topping enriched with ground almonds. As it bakes, the fruit softens and turns syrupy while the crumble browns for a classic contrast of textures.
It is an easy oven dessert that works well for family-style serving. Spoon it warm into bowls and finish with hot custard or cream for a balanced, comforting pudding.
Method
20m30m50m
- Heat oven to 190°C.

- Rub butter into flour, then stir in almonds and diced marzipan.

- Bake 25–35 minutes until golden and bubbling.
Ingredients
- 50 g Ground almonds
- 600 g Apricots halved
- 45ml Caster Sugar
- 100 g Marzipan diced
- 100 g Unsalted butter cold cubed
- 150 g Plain Flour
Notes
Adjust the sugar slightly depending on how sweet or tart your apricots are.
Keep the butter cold when rubbing into the flour to get a better crumble texture.
Fresh apricots work well; if they are very ripe, reduce bake time slightly and check early.
