Pistachio Strawberry Crumble Recipe
Savor the sweetness of our quick and easy Pistachio Strawberry Crumble. A delectable blend of fresh strawberries, crunchy pistachios, and golden crumble for a perfect dessert indulgence.
After I came home from the Farmers Market last week with what must have been five pounds of strawberries, I knew I had to set some aside for a simple crumble.
Less fussy than a pie, this classic Pistachio Strawberry Crumble recipe is the perfect option when you’re craving dessert, but prefer something a little less indulgent.
I, Alex, love the combination of strawberries and pistachios. It’s a little unexpected compared to almonds, pecans or walnuts yet even more delicious.
What is a Crumble?
A crumble is a dessert that typically consists of a fruit or savory filling topped with a crumbly mixture of butter, flour, sugar, and sometimes oats or nuts.
The topping, known as the “crumble,” is often baked until it becomes golden and crisp, providing a delightful contrast to the soft and flavorful filling. Crumbles are versatile and can feature various fruits, such as apples, berries, peaches, or a combination of fruits.
They are commonly served warm and may be accompanied by a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Crumbles are appreciated for their simplicity, deliciousness, and the comforting combination of sweet fruit and a buttery, textured topping.

Recipe Notes and Tips
- Feel free to adjust the sugar quantities based on your sweetness preference and the sweetness of the strawberries.
- If you do not have a food processor, it’s okay because a crumble is not meant to be smooth. Instead, use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend the ingredients until you have a crumbly texture.
