This is an adaptation of a recipe for 'Tropical crumble slice' from the Tesco recipe app. Halfway through cooking it, I realised it was a variation on date slice. Last time I made date slice (home ec lessons at school), I broke my Dad's tooth. Check for stones.
Bottom:
90g butter
180g plain flour
90g caster sugar
Middle:
400g dried fruit (I used a mix of raisins, apricots and dates, Tesco suggests 300g of Island Mix and 100g of dried mango)
1 tbsp sugar
200ml water
half to 1 teaspoon of mixed spice (optional)
Top:
90g butter
90g plain flour
4 tbsp light brown sugar
45g oats or muesli
Preheat oven to 190 degC, gas mark 4. Line a 20cm / 8in tin with parchment.
Bottom: Melt the butter and mix in the flour and sugar, press into the tin to cover the bottom evenly. Bake for 15 mins until golden.
Middle: Put the ingredients into a pan and simmer for 10 mins so the fruit plumps up.
Top: Rub together the butter and flour. Stir in the sugar and muesli.
Spoon the fruit onto the base and scatter over the crumble. Bake for 25mins until golden.
Cool in the tin, then cut and eat.
Picture to follow.
