Making the Apple Crumble Cake Recipe

I like this recipe because you can make it in one bowl, making clean up easy too. Start by placing the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and diced apple into a medium bowl.

Measure the oil, milk or dairy-free milk, and the egg then add to the dry ingredients. Stir to combine but don’t over mix as it will make the cake tough.

Once the dry ingredients are well-incorporated place into a greased 9-inch square baking pan. Then set aside while you are making the crumble topping.

To Make the Crumble Topping

Add the brown sugar and flour into a small bowl. Cut in the butter or margarine until the pieces are about the size of peas.

Sprinkle on top of the cake batter and then bake, until golden brown and cooked through.

The apple crumble cake has a great smell to it as it bakes. It’s a great combination of yummy cake with nice pieces of apple baked in and a yummy crunching topping. If you love cinnamon you can add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the crumble topping or even a little nutmeg or apple pie spice. It will make it even more delicious.
