Mix the flour with salt and mix in the coconut oil piece by piece until the mixture becomes slightly crumbly. With the mixer running, add about 4 tablespoons of ice water so that the crumble becomes doughy. Take the dough out of the bowl, shape into 2 plates and wrap in foil and put in a cool place for about 60 minutes.
Then roll out a sheet of dough about 3 mm thick, fold it up and place in the greased springform pan (28 cm). Unfold and form an approx. 3 cm high edge. Whisk the egg white with a little water and coat the bottom and edges with it. Roll out the second sheet of dough slightly larger than the shape.
Preheat the oven to 225 ° C (top / bottom heat, convection: 200 ° C). Wash and peel the apples, remove the core and cut the flesh into wedges. Mix in a bowl with lemon juice, maple syrup, sugar, cornstarch and spices.
Pour the filling on the dough, cover with 1 tablespoon flakes of butter. Place the second sheet of pastry on top and press firmly. Brush with the remaining flakes. Poke a few holes in the lid to allow the steam to escape.
Bake for about 10 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 180 ° C (convection 160 ° C) and bake the cake for another 40-45 minutes.
The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
