"Crumbles, sometimes incorrectly called crisps, originated in Britain during World War II. ...

In some parts of America a very similar dish may be called a crisp." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.248.80.108 (talk) 21:22, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also the second to last paragraph doesn't make a lot of sense. Consider this sentence: Due to strict rationing the ingredients required to make the bases of pies contained too much of the necessary flour, fat and sugar to make the crumble by adding bread crumbs. First pies, then breadcrumbs. Not sure how this relates to crumble? Unless... perhaps they are saying that crumble emerged as a preferred dish to pie during rationing due to shortages of pastry ingredients. To further reduce use of flour, fat and sugar (rationed items) breadcrumbs could be added to the crumble. Or something along those lines, though this would need verifying. 81.141.171.97 (talk) 18:19, 2 November 2013 (UTC) OK I'm just gonna change it. 81.141.171.97 (talk) 18:21, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Image[edit]

Can we get a better photo? I love crumble but that image isn't really that appetising.

I can contribute this one: http://annexia.org/tmp/crumble.jpg if people like it. Unfortunately because I like rather more crumble than is good for me, perhaps this doesn't demonstrate the crumble and fruit layers very well. Richard W.M. Jones (talk) 14:31, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Origins[edit]

Crumble is French not brittish MPTC Prove it 81.141.171.97 (talk) 18:13, 2 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cant be short of all three 'flour, fat and sugar to make the pastry'. PeterGrecian 14:29, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ireland was part of the United Kingdom at the time of crumble's creation. Zoltan'smaster (talk) 15:27, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Custard[edit]

Something should be mentioned that it often goes with Custard. Gazh (talk) 14:05, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Accompaniments[edit]

I've spoken to many europeans that didn't like English crumble until they visited England and discovered that it is always served with custard, cream or ice-cream. This is an important fact as the crumble is usually too dry without it. CommanderCoder (talk) 08:11, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Two things: firstly, talk pages are not forums for discussing topics: they are only for agreeing changes to their associated articles. Secondly, what people may have said, and your opinion about the topic, are not Verifiable facts about crumble: claims added to articles must be supported by documented evidence from Reliable Sources. These are basic pillars of Wikipedia: please read about them before you do anything else. Thanks. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:28, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Crumble is British?[edit]

I have the Good Housekeeping Cook Book from 1950. It does not contain a recipe for CRUMBLE, though it has a very similar recipe for Krümeltorte, which I have also seen spelled Krummeltorte - which looks very like apple crumble. https://www.amuse-your-bouche.com/german-krummeltorte-easy-apple-crumble-cake/

So I wonder what is the origin of this German dish? How does it compare with crumble? Is one derived from the other? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.249.23.158 (talk) 19:42, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

crumble[edit]

There is a recipe for Apple Crumble in Mrs Beeton's cookbook. I am sure that the Ireland Irish, like the Liverpool Irish to which I belong, made use of this dish. (Pamour (talk) 21:34, 4 August 2019 (UTC)).[reply]

Rename change[edit]

I declare the title for this page to be renamed "Crimble Crumble". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.248.108.80 (talk) 18:34, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
