How to make the Apple Crumble Cake in 4 easy steps

Step 1: prepare the crumble

The first step is to preheat the oven at 200º, as you will put together the cake very quickly

Now yes, start with the crumble, since it will need to rest in the fridge while you prepare the base and the apple filling.

It is as simple as gathering all the ingredients and mixing with the silicone spatula or the wooden spoon. You can finish kneading by hand. As soon as you get the "crumble", put it in the fridge.

Step 2: prepare the cake batter

Mix all the wet ingredients in a bowl. Then add the other ingredients. Don't over mix and if it has any lumps, that's completely fine. Put a baking paper in the mold so that the bottom part does not stick and can be easily removed from the mold, once the baking paper is on, grease the mold and pour the dough inside. Let it rest and move on to the next step.

Step 3: prepare the filling

Prepare the filling while the crumble is in the fridge and the cake batter is resting. Peel the apples and cut them into cubes. Once cut, add a squeeze of lemon, a few drops of vanilla, flour, sugar and cinnamon to taste, and mix.

Tips for preparing the best Apple Crumble Cake

• use golden delicious apples, to my taste they are the best for cooking
• use melted butter, I know the crumble is usually made with cold butter and they insist on this a lot to get it right. If you use cold butter, you will run the risk of the crumble melting in the oven. Instead, using this recipe with the melted butter, it is impossible to go wrong.
• if you see that the top browns too quickly and you think it may burn. Cover it with aluminum foil and continue the baking process.
• wait for it to cool down to cut perfect pieces. If you cut it while it's still hot, it can break more easily. Although, let's see who can resist!
• you know that the cake is ready to take out of the oven when you see that it has a nice golden color and your house has a delicious smell of cinnamon. You'll want to eat it right away, but wait 10 to 15 minutes so it cools down a little and doesn't burn your mouth.
