Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 225 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 175 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100 milliliters milk
- 3 medium apples
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 70 grams brown sugar
- 50 grams rolled oats
- 50 grams cold unsalted butter
- 50 grams all-purpose flour (for crumble)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 9-inch (23 cm) springform cake pan with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 225 grams of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Set aside.
Using a mixer, cream together 175 grams of unsalted butter and 200 grams of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
Peel, core, and slice the apples thinly. Toss them with a tablespoon of lemon juice and set aside.
For the crumble topping, combine 70 grams brown sugar, 50 grams rolled oats, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, and 50 grams all-purpose flour. Add in the 50 grams of cold unsalted butter, rubbing the mixture between your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Layer the sliced apples evenly over the batter.
Sprinkle the crumble topping over the apple layer, ensuring even coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice the cake and serve, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
