To make the easy Blackcurrant Breakfast Crumble, gather together a selection of dried fruit such as figs, sultanas, dried apricots and pitted dates and simmer them together with a splash of vanilla and Barker's of Geraldine's Squeezed NZ Blackcurrant Syrup. Meanwhile, simply process the crumble ingredients, add atop of plump fruit, allow it to infuse together in a warm oven and serve with Greek yoghurt mixed with the blackcurrant syrup. Mum will be tickled pink with this hearty, delicious start to her day.
