Germanic Apple Crumb Cake Recipe

This apple pie recipe comes from the neighbors of my friend in Bern, Switzerland. Vielen dank nochmal, es ist immer noch ein mega Hit :)

Prep time: 15 min.

Dough:

400g flour

200g Vegan butter

200g sugar

a pinch of salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Mix all of the ingredients except the cinnamon until well combined. Grease or line a round cake pan form with parchment paper. Fill the form with 2/3 of the dough. Add the cinnamon to the remaining dough.

Filling:

1kg apples, in small pieces

150g sugar

Juice from half a lemon

3 tablespoons flour

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Combine all the ingredients and spread across the dough in the cake form. Sprinkle the rest of the dough across the top, it should look like little crumbs.

Bake at 180 C (350 F) for about 45 minutes.

For best results, let the pie cool for a few hours until it becomes a bit more solid.
