Caramel Apple Delight with a Cinnamon Crisp Topping
Experience pure joy with tender caramelized apples beneath a cinnamon-infused crumbly layer. This delightful twist on the traditional apple crumble, known here as the apple tatin crumble, perfectly combines the sweetness of caramelized apples with the crunchy texture of the crumble, all accentuated by a hint of cinnamon. Easy to prepare, it’s sure to impress your guests with its comforting autumnal flavors.
Ingredients
For 4 servings:
– Flour: 80 grams
– Granulated Sugar: 90 grams
– Soft Salted Butter: 80 grams
– Cinnamon: a pinch
– Apples: 4
– Milk: 10 cl (approximately 3.5 fluid ounces)
Preparation
1. Start by peeling and coring the apples, then chop them into large cubes.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour with 60 grams of soft butter and 60 grams of granulated sugar to form a sandy dough. Mix in a pinch of cinnamon. Chill this dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, prepare the caramel. In a non-stick skillet, heat 30 grams of granulated sugar until it starts to color. Carefully pour in the milk to avoid splashing, and stir with a wooden spatula to blend the caramel smoothly, then incorporate the salted butter and the apple cubes. Simmer over low heat for about 2 minutes.
4. Transfer the caramel-coated apples into an oven-proof dish and cover with the crumble dough. Alternatively, you can cook the crumbles directly in oven-safe ramekins. Bake in the oven at 200°C (approximately 390°F or gas mark 6-7) for 25 minutes.
To Finish
Once baked, distribute the crumble into four ramekins, layering the caramelized apples at the bottom and the crumble mixture on top. Sprinkle each serving with a pinch of cinnamon and serve warm. Enjoy the delightful mix of textures and flavors in this exquisite autumn treat.
