• 1 large pinch of cinnamon powder
• 1 pinch of powdered nutmeg
• 1 vanilla stick
• 2 +1 (60g) tablespoons of brown sugar
For the crumble:
• 125g of flour
• 125g of ground almonds
• 125g of cold unsalted butter
• 100g of sugar
GETTING THE CRUMBLE READY
– Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl.
– Add the butter cut into small pieces and work the dough with your fingertips to get large crumbs.
– Keep in the fridge.
PREPARING THE PINEAPPLE
– Peel the pineapple and cut it in 4 lengthwise. Remove the heart that is a bit hard.
– Slice each quarter in 2 then dice the slices obtained.
– Let the pineapple cook for about 15 minutes in a large saucepan with 40 g of brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and the vanilla stick once split and grated.
– Once it is cooked, pass it through a sieve and collect the juice.
– Reduce the juice for about 10 minutes with 20g of sugar and the lime juice, until you get a light syrup.
BAKING THE CRUMBLE
– Preheat the oven to 180°C.
– Place the pineapple in a gratin dish.
– Grate a little lime zest on the fruit, 2 or 3 thin slices of butter.
– Add the syrup, then arrange the crumble generously on the fruit.
– Finish with a few thin slices of soft butter on the crumble.
– Bake for 35 minutes.
When it comes out of the oven, the crumble is golden and sometimes, if you are lucky, a flavored caramelization will have formed on the edges of the mold.
Wait until it cools down…
