I have always loved crumbles. There is something fabulous about having the sweet gooey caramelized fruit on the bottom and the crunchy crumble on top. I also have always been a huge fan of berries. So when I saw Aran's new post on her blog "Cannelle et Vanille" with the title "Saturn Nectarines, Red Currants and Raspberries" I was immediately swept away and had to try the recipe ASAP.
Until I saw the recipe I didn't realize that Saturn (or donut) nectarines existed. I had only ever heard of Saturn (or donut) peaches (German: Weinbergpfirsich). Since I have never seen Saturn nectarines here I just went ahead and bought Saturn peaches.
The crumble and the mace mascarpone cream turned out just perfect!!! It was so good that my friend and I ate the whole crumble in one sitting...and I made a larger recipe to be able to use up all the crumble (excuses, excuses...). I plan to make the crumble again soon. However, next time I may substitute almonds for the pistachios since pistachios are really expensive. I also will go lighter on the mace in the mascarpone cream. And next time I will make sure I only make enough crumble as there are mouths to feed. Any volunteers???

ReplyDeleteI love crumble too. I'm hoping you can make it for us when you are here in L.A. Be sure to bring the recipe. I never knew there were donut/saturn necturines either. But I am a huge fan of the peaches. I'm sure they taste very similar. Great job....keep them coming!!1
