Trudy - I finally got around to making this yesterday. Would you believe it's nearly all gone!!!! My Husband loved it. Thanks for posting it.
Brumington - I made this today to use up some shop bought jam and apart from the HUGE mess my children make eating it (the crumble is very crumbly!) I really liked it. My oldest wasn't as keen but he's not a fan of anything too sweet so ate all the topping and left the sweet jam. Next time I make this I might gently push the topping down a bit in the hope it wont be as crumbly. I wonder how yummy this would be made with nutella instead of jam? Might have to experiment.

Tips/Hints:
Oldie, but a goldie. You could combine the topping in the TM but it is probably quicker to do in a separate bowl, as it only takes about 30 seconds to mix by hand.

Thanks CP - are you starting to feel a little less guilty?

My family love this and yet tell me they hate coconut ??? They seem to think it's something done with egg whites ??? I will not be enlightening them.
I once got into BIG trouble from a Mum at school for telling her child what parsnips were. She had been eating them for years as white carrots, but would not eat them as parsnips. Fair enough. I was more careful after that.
Great conversion-thanks

For years my kids would tell anyone who would listen that they never ate tomatoes! I'm not sure what they thought made all that lasagne and spag bog that I made them so red!! :D

My Mum presented me with something crumbed for lunch one day - she said they were chicken strips. One bite told me they weren't - she had tried to con me into eating tripe but it didn't work. I don't eat leather. I was in my 40's at the time - I think well over the time age she should have been trying to force feed me >:( >:( >:( >:(

I have fooled people with tripe -but lonnnnnnngggg sloooooow cooking, and not crumbed.
Love your Mum trying it when you were 40 ;D ;D ;D. Hope you ate all your vegies so you could get dessert? ;)

No still feel guilty, I have a lovely Fruit and Nut Slice that I want to convert, and a few more things and then I will breathe a huge sigh of relief.
