Cherry Crumble – The Stay At Home Chef

What is the difference between a crisp and a crumble?

The main difference between crumbles and crisps is in the toppings, which result in different textures and flavors.

Crumble Topping: A crumble typically has a topping made from a mixture of flour, sugar, and butter, which is combined until it reaches a crumbly texture. This mixture is sprinkled over the fruit before baking. The result is a rich, buttery, and soft topping that, as the name suggests, crumbles easily.

Crisp Topping: A crisp, on the other hand, includes oats in the topping mixture, along with flour, sugar, and butter. The oats provide a more textured, and as the name implies, a crispier finish to the topping. Some recipes may also include nuts or spices, such as cinnamon, for additional flavor and crunch.

Both desserts are baked until the topping is golden and the fruit filling is bubbling. While crumbles and crisps are similar in concept and often use similar types of fruit fillings, the difference in the topping textures and ingredients gives each a distinct taste and mouthfeel. Crumbles tend to have a denser, cake-like topping, whereas crisps offer a more granola-like chew with a bit more crunch.
