SOURDOUGH APPLE CRUMBLE CAKE

I like this recipe as it is a good one to use up discarded sourdough starter. It is moist, tasty, quick and easy to make. It can be varied depending on what fresh or dried fruit you have at hand, it is also nice with pecans added to the cake mix, even different spices....just a very versatile recipe. It also stores very well in the fridge up to a week.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your cake. Use unbleached all-purpose flour, unsalted butter, and fresh, organic apples.

Be patient with the sourdough starter. It takes time for the starter to develop and become active. Don't rush the process, or your cake will not turn out properly.

Make sure the butter is cold when you cut it into the flour. This will help to create a flaky crust.

Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cake tough.

Bake the cake until the crust is golden brown and the center is cooked through. A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out clean.

Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set.

Conclusion:

This sourdough apple crumble cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a special holiday dinner. The sourdough starter gives the cake a unique flavor and texture that you won't find in other cakes. And the apple crumble topping is the perfect finishing touch.
