ZELDA’S APPLE CRUMBLE CAKE

This is a rather long process but really very delicious: It is almost an apple crumble with a type of cheesecake?

  • Cake:
  • 310 ml cake flour
  • 180 ml brown sugar
  • 5 ml baking powder
  • 2,5 ml cinnamon
  • 100 g cold butter, coarsely grated
  • 4 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 3 eggs
  • 230 g plain creamed smooth cottage cheese
  • 250 g cultured cream
  • 125 ml tightly packed brown sugar
  • 5 ml vanilla essence
  • pinch of salt
  • Crumble:
  • 250 ml cake flour
  • 160 ml brown sugar
  • 2,5 ml cinnamon
  • pinch salt
  • 60 ml melted butter

Cake:
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. Rub butter into the flour, Grease a 20 cm spring foam pan. Spoon two thirds of the mixture into the pan. Shake the pan to spread the mixture out evenly. Do not press down. Arrange the apples on top and cover with the remaining flour mixture. Do not press down. Bake in preheated oven at 180º C for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile beat eggs, cottage cheese, cream, brown sugar, vanilla and salt together. Pour over baked apple mixture and bake for further 20 minutes.

Crumble:
Mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and melted butter for the crumble together. Mix to form big crumbs. Scatter over cake, piling it slightly higher in the middle.
Bake for further 20 minutes. Leave to cool. Run a knife along the edge to loosen.
Turn out carefully.
