  5. Scoop out the fruit mixture onto the crust and gently spread with the back of a wet spatula until even.
  6. Sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture.
  7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. Cool.
  8. Refrigerate in the fridge until firm for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight. Cut into squares and serve. Store in the fridge or freezer.
