Description

This apple plum crumble cake is a poem! I especially like to bake it in autumn when apples and plums are in season. The combination of the fruity compote and the crispy crumbles is simply irresistible. The cake is perfect for a cozy afternoon with friends or family. It can be prepared well in advance and still tastes delicious the next day. An absolute must for all cake lovers!
