Apple crumble with crème custard 🍎🍏

We make date paste, to sweeten the recipe.

Peel the apples and cut them in a moon shape, neither too thin nor too thick.

We put them in a pot over medium heat with cinnamon, 3 tablespoons of lemon juice and two tablespoons of date paste. I also added another tablespoon of homemade fig and apple jam. Cook covered for 10 minutes until the apple is tender.

In a bowl prepare the crumble. We put the oat flakes, flour, butter and a couple of tablespoons of date paste (I put only one because then I put another one of jam). And mix everything to obtain a dough.

Place the apples in the mold and form the base and cover it with the crumble.

Bake on top and bottom at 180 for 20-25 min, I put 5 minutes more with fire only on top so that the crumble is more toasted and crispier.

Meanwhile in a saucepan we make the custard cream to accompany. Heat the milk, a couple of spoonfuls of date paste, the vanilla and two egg yolks over medium heat.

Quickly mix everything with the whisks so that it does not curdle. And stir until it thickens.

Serve the cake and serve with the custard!
