ULTIMATE EGGLESS
APPLE CRUMBLE CAKE | CUPCAKES
​
Ultimate Eggless Apple Crumble Cake | Apple Crumble Cupcakes – I did the egg version last week, and not forgetting the eggless this week. The caramelized apple and sauce just melt in your mouth with the cake. The sweetness of the caramel flavour is delicious, you would want more after one piece. Eggless sponge cake alone might be a little flat and boring, but adding the caramelized apples makes the cake another level. Just additional work on the caramelized apple, and the rest are pretty easy. In this very same recipe, you can also make apple crumble cupcakes. Stay tuned till the end. I hope you’re inspired with make this. Enjoy!

100g (1/2 cup) fine sugar
1 tsp cinnamon powder
2 tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp salt
​
Crumble
28g (2 tbsp) unsalted butter
40g (1/3 cup) cake flour
40g (3 tbsp) fine sugar

½ tsp cinnamon powder
Pinch of salt
Apple crumble Cake
180g (1 ½ cup) cake flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
113g (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
100g (1/2 cup) fine sugar
120g (½ cup) plain yogurt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1-2 tbsp whole milk (add 1 tbsp at a time)
Instructions:
Caramelized Apple
1. Peel the apple skin and cut into chunks. I like mine smaller chunks but not too much as the apples will shrink tremendously.
2. Place the chunk apples into a pot. Add sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon powder and salt. Cook the apple over medium heat. Mix the apples until all the ingredients are evenly combined. Stir occasionally. The apples will produce much juices. Keep cooking until the juices are thickened, volume reduced and caramelized.
3. The apples will shrink and looked much less.
4. Set aside for few minutes to cool. Refrigerate until it is needed.
Crumble
5. In a food processor, add both the flours, sugar, salt, and cinnamon powder. Pulse a few times to get a quick mix. Add butter. Pulse few times or until it gets a crumbly texture. Do not over pulse as it will become a clump.
6. Refrigerate until it is needed.
