This apple crumble slice brings crumble and cake together to make one mouthwatering dessert or afternoon treat.
Traditional cinnamon and apple flavours are combined with soft sponge and topped with a crumble in this delicious twist on an apple crumble recipe (opens in new tab). In all other ways apart from shape, it's much like a traditional apple crumble. It has a buttery, sugary, crunchy topping with soft apples at the bottom. We've used cinnamon to give it that warming kick, too. However, these are sliced up into pieces.

- Bake for 50 to 60 minutes.
