To mix: To beat or stir food ingredients together until they are combined.
To peel: To remove the outer layer of a food.
To rub in: A method of incorporating fat into flour by rubbing the fat with the fingertips until it combines with the flour to form a mixture with a breadcrumb-like consistency, eg rub the butter into the flour and add enough cold water to form a smooth dough. Pastry, scones, cakes and biscuits are made using the rub in method.

To sprinkle: To scatter a powdered ingredient or tiny droplets of a liquid, eg sprinkle the caster sugar over the fruit or sprinkle the brandy over the fruit cake.

!Note - you can vary the fruit, or add other dry ingredients like chopped nuts or oatmeal into the crumble mix.
