Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (O / U heat).
Peel, core, halve and cut the apples into large pieces. Put in a baking dish and mix with 2 tablespoons of the sugar and the grated lemon zest. Sprinkle 40 g of the butter in flakes on top.
Knead the remaining butter into the flour, add the rest of the sugar and cinnamon and work well into crumble. If you like large sprinkles, you can now add 1-2 tablespoons of water.
Pour the streusel over the apples.
Bake at 180 degrees for about 60-75 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the juice bubbles around the edges
Serve with creme double, whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

About Editorial Staff

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.
