Tropical Crumble
For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Gaye of Laws of the Kitchen chose Tropical Crumble on pages 418-419 of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours.
This should have been a full size dessert with a baked crumble on top... but I was making this for one and I just came back from a pilates class. I just started taking pilates and find it interesting...I'm finding muscles that I didn't know I had. :) Anyway, I'm enjoying the class and decided to make a quick and lighter version of Dorie's Tropical Crumble.
For my one person serving inspired by Dorie's recipe, I cut one medium banana and half a mango. Some butter and brown sugar are heated and the fruit is gently browned. At the end, I tossed in some chopped pecans.
This was a perfect little dessert for watching The Closer and resting some sore muscles! :)
Check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers and see their creations - how it is supposed to be made!

Love your uncrumble Mary! Looks delicious.
Looks great but I need my crumble on it :). Please tell me you are not getting too healthy on me??!!! I will have to drag you back down to the gutter where I live....
Beautiful photos, Mary! I've practiced yoga for several years, but want to try pilates soon...
that is a great lighter twist on the recipe. nice job.
I am loving the caramelised banana peeking out of your crumble. It looks delish! Thanks for baking with me.
The caramelized fruit was really great, so I expect yours was very tasty. My topping was soft, which was ok but not too pretty.
I love the idea of an un-crumble - not only does it look tantalizing, but it's practically health food!
your healthier version looks nice!
