Best 2 Mauro Apple Crumb Cake Recipes

APPLE MUG PIE

Steps:

• For the filling: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the apples, sugars, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, cornstarch, salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the apple mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until the apples start to soften, 5 to 8 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• For the streusel topping: Add the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and butter to a food processor and pulse a couple of times until it resembles coarse, wet sand. (Do not overmix.) Set aside. Coat the insides of 4 oven-safe coffee mugs with cooking spray, then place them in a 9-inch square baking pan. Fill the mugs about three-quarters of the way with the apple mixture, then top each with 1/4 cup streusel topping. Bake until the top is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool until warm to the touch, about 20 minutes.

APPLE CRUMBLE COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x12-inch baking dish generously.
• Whisk flour, sea salt, baking powder, and baking soda together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Combine walnuts, brown sugar, white sugar, salt, cinnamon, and melted butter in a bowl. Mix until walnuts and sugar are thoroughly coated with butter.
• Cream butter and sugar together in another bowl with a spatula until well blended. Add 1 egg and whisk until mixture is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in second egg until thoroughly incorporated. Add vanilla extract and yogurt; whisk together. Add flour mixture to wet ingredients; whisk just until flour disappears. Do not overmix.
• Remove cores from apples. Cut across into 1/8- to 1/4-inch slices. Stack up a few slices, make 1 cut down the center, and dice across into cubes. Add to cake batter, folding in with a spatula until just combined.
• Spread 1/2 of the batter evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Scatter 1/2 of the crumble mixture evenly over the top. Top with the rest of the batter in dollops. Spread carefully to evenly distribute, trying not to disturb the crumbs. Top with the rest of the crumb mixture. Press crumbs into the batter very gently.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick or bamboo skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes, before slicing and serving.
