Foolproof Crumble

A home favourite for me to use up apple and rhubarb gluts. Also a treat for everyone and a very easy dessert. I prepare it in individual pots as one person I know could eat the whole dish of crumble floating on custard. Prepare in advance and just put in the oven as you call everyone for dinner. Instant pudding.
