Ingredients
- 500 grams canned pineapple chunks (drained)
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 100 grams unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 50 grams chopped nuts (optional, like pecans or almonds)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a medium-sized baking dish.
Step 2
In the greased baking dish, spread the drained pineapple chunks evenly and sprinkle the granulated sugar and vanilla extract over them. Toss lightly to coat the pineapple.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped nuts if using.
Step 4
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the mixture until it forms a crumbly texture resembling coarse sand.
Step 5
Spread the crumble mixture evenly over the pineapple layer, making sure all the fruit is covered.
Step 6
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Serve the Pineapple Crunch warm, optionally accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
