Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C)
- Grease a 9-inch (22 cm) pan with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle bit of flour.
- Make the crumble: In a small bowl place the breadcrumbs and sugar and add olive oil gradually (do not add all of it at once) while pressing the mixture with a fork, until you have a crumbly texture and all the breadcrumbs are wet. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and cinnamon) and set aside.
- In a larger bowl, mix the olive oil with the sugar until smooth and then add the eggs one by one, vanilla and milk. Mix well. I used a whisk and mixed by hand.
- Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture gradually mixing until combined.
- Add the sliced apples and toss until they are coated with the batter and set aside.
- Empty the mixture in the prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle over the cake the crumble, bake for another 10-15 minutes until crumble is golden.
- Cool for at least 30 minutes. Slice and serve as is or with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
