Ingredients
- 3 old-fashioned rolls (or 1/2 yeast braid)
- 300 ml milk
- 1 pinch salt
- 0.5 lemon (unprocessed)
- 40 g sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 3 apples
- 1 tbsp butter
- butter (for the ramekins)
- 100 g chopped almond kernels
- 80 g sugar
- 120 ml whipping cream
Instructions
-
1.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan).
-
2.
Grease eight heatproof ramekins well. Slice the rolls into thin slices and place them in a bowl. Whisk together the milk with salt, grated lemon zest, sugar, and eggs, then pour about two-thirds over the rolls, letting it soak.

3.
Peel the apples and cut them into small pieces. Mix the apples with the rolls and fill the buttered ramekins. Pour the remaining egg-milk mixture over, sprinkle almonds on top, add butter flakes, and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.

Meanwhile, caramelize the sugar in a pot until it turns golden brown. Carefully pour in the cream (watch out for splattering!), stir to dissolve, and reduce to the desired consistency or add a little water if needed. Let it cool slightly while stirring occasionally; if it thickens too much, whisk in more water. Serve the finished apple crumble on plates drizzled with the sauce.
