Once cool, transfer curd to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to one week.

Pour onto prepared baking sheet and spread mixture out into clusters. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 23 minutes. Remove from oven and allow crumble to cool completely on pan before breaking into smaller clusters. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
