My best Feijoa Crumble Cake is a must have dessert recipe. It is so easy to make and ready in no time.
Without a doubt, the Feijoa (aka Pineapple Guava) is one of my favorite fruits and the best way of eating it is either by scooping out the pulp with a spoon or by using it in baking or making ice cream.
I am certain you’ll love my deliciously fruity Best Feijoa crumble cake with its buttery crumble topping.
Best of all, the Feijoa crumble cake is ready in only 25 minutes. You could also make a Feijoa crisp, which is even quicker.
Simply use my delicious Apple Crisp recipe and substitute the apples with the feijoas.
Feijoas are so easy to grow and I think everyone should grow one if they have a garden. The tree is evergreen with gorgeous flowers in spring and an abundance of fruit in autumn.
Once the feijoas fall from the tree they are ready to eat.
Simply cut the fruit in half and scoop out the pulp with a spoon. If you can’t use the Feioas straight away, put the pulp into the freezer.
For our gorgeous Feijoa Crumble Cake recipe, you’ll need 10 to 12 medium-sized Feijoas. We peel the skin with a sharp knife and cut the fruit into fairly thick slices.
There is no need to put any sugar or lemon juice on them. Once they are cut into slices, set them aside until you are ready to use them.
One of our key ingredients for the crumble dough are ground almonds. It makes the crumbles so crispy and the butter adds the most beautiful buttery flavor. Oh, so good.
Use 2/3 of the crumble dough as the cake base. The remaining dough will be our crumble topping.
It should only take around 30 minutes to get everything ready.
Once you assembled the feijoa cake, it takes around 25 minutes for the cake to bake.
By the way, you can watch the video here on how to make this mouth watering dessert.
Enjoy the feijoa crumble cake while it is still warm with either custard or vanilla ice cream.
I promise, your family will love this dessert dish and will want to come back for more.
