Storage: Cool completely and store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes to restore crispiness. Make-Ahead: Assemble the crumble (without the syrup) up to a day in advance and refrigerate. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time. Variations: Substitute ground lamb for beef, or use pecans instead of walnuts. For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free phyllo dough or crushed gluten-free crackers. Serving Suggestion: This is a unique dessert that pairs wonderfully with strong black tea or coffee.
