"Apple crumble is one of my most favorite desserts of all time, I remember making it growing up and to this day still swoon at the smell of it coming out of the oven. This Irish apple crumble cake is a nice little twist on the classic with a moist apple cake interior and a light crumbly topping. That classic combination of apple and blackberries could also be used here." - Donal Skehan.


Irish apple crumble cake dessert recipe 

Serves 6-8

Ingredients

4oz butter plus extra for greasing 5oz soft light brown sugar 2 large free range eggs 7oz plain flour, sifted 1 tablespoon baking powder pinch of salt 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 11oz peeled, cored and sliced cooking apple (Shouldn’t be more than one large one) For the crumble topping: 2oz of vanilla sugar (or substitute with caster sugar) 2oz of plain flour 2oz of butter


Method

Preheat the oven to 360°F, grease and line an 8in cake tin with a removable base. With an electric hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until pale. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing until they are incorporated.

Fold through the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until you have a thick cake batter. Stir through the apple and pour the batter into the cake tin. The batter will be thick, so use a spatula to spread across the base of the tin.


Using a hand blender with a food processor attachment, blitz the ingredients for the crumble topping until you get left with rough crumbs. You can also do this by hand in a bowl using your fingertips to combine the ingredients together. Sprinkle the crumble topping on top of the batter.

Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
