"Never give up on the things that really make you smile"
If I had to choose a city in the world that stay forever, that would perhaps be London. The last time I went to visit one of my favourite monuments: The Tower of London. You know that I love England and it's funny because the only time that I have not supported this city is when I lived there, but again, I can not visit it again and again.
I am passionate about the United Kingdom. Its streets, its customs and its desserts, one of my favorites is the crumble and is precisely what I bring you today. A delicious crumble ruibarbos oatmeal. It cannot be more british!

Directions
1. in a bowl, mix the egg yolk, cold water and vanilla and beat with the help of a fork.
2. in bowl of electric mixer, mix the flour with the salt and sugar.
3. Add the cold butter cut into cubes and mix hasa that consistency is sandy.
4 Add egg yolk mixture and mix until you get a US dough consistency. If you need to add a little more flour or water to a soft dough. Cover the mould with this mass. It is not necessary to grease it because having much butter this mass us and sticks.
5 Preheat oven to 175 ° C and prepare the filling.
6. cut the ruibarbos in pieces of 2 cm approximately.
7. in a bowl, mix the flour and sugar in the filling.
8. Add water and the ruibarbos and mix well.
9 pour onto the crust.
10. in a large bowl combine all ingredients of the crumble and with the fingertips mix butter. You must have a texture as from arena gorda.
11. carefully cover with our rocks of crumble cake.
12 bake for about 35-45 minutes... and go!
- If you want to replace the ruibarbos with other fruit you can do it but you have to pass it before through the pan to soften it.
- Replaced by figs or rhubarb figs decreasing by one third of the stuffing sugar
- Add a little nutmeg to crumble and get a more autumnal touch
- Use the prepared pastry sold in supermarkets if you want a cake ready
- Level of difficulty: medium
- Preparation time: 50 minutes
- Servings: 12
- I recommend accompanarla for an iced coffee. Only have to add a little liquid saccharin to taste (cold sugar dissolves poorly) and a handful of crushed ice. Rich and refreshing.
