Apple Cinnamon Crumble Cake

A moist and spiced apple cake topped with a crunchy brown sugar crumble. It’s easy to make, family-approved, and perfect for any time of year.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup butter softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup apple peeled and diced
  • ½ cup brown sugar for crumble
  • Additional butter and flour for the crumble topping

Instructions
 

  • Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9-inch cake pan.
  • Whisk flour and cinnamon in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Beat softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
  • Mix in eggs one at a time. Gradually add flour mixture until just combined.
  • Gently fold in diced apples with a spatula; batter will be thick.
  • Spread batter evenly into prepared cake pan.
  • Combine brown sugar, flour, and butter in a small bowl. Mix until crumbly.
  • Sprinkle crumble over batter. Bake 35–40 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  • Cool in pan for 20 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Serve warm or at room temp.
