Cherry Crumble-Pie

Two weeks ago we (some weird people, wearing kind of medieval clothes) met for a 'hunt'. We actually chased wooden planks that were cut out and painted as different animals and positioned along the way.

Well, another nice day for baking a cake :)

For this cake you need:

200 g flour
1 tsp. baking flour
75 g sugar
1 egg
75 g butter

720 ml canned cherries
2 tbsp. sugar
1 sachet custard powder vanilla flavour

100 g flour
100 g ground hazelnut
100 g butter
100 g sugar

Step 1: Put all the ingredients from the first package (flour, baking flour, sugar, egg and butter) into a bowl an knead until well combined. Flour your working surface slightly and roll out the dough into a 29-cm circle. Grease and flour a 26-cm round baking tin and put the dough-circle in, lining the sides about 1,5 cm high. Put the tin into the fridge while preparing the filling.

Step 2: Put a sieve onto a bowl and fill the canned cherries into the sieve. Add ca. 100 ml water to the 'cherry juice' . Mix 5 tbsp. water with 2 tbsp. sugar and the custard powder. Bring the juice to the boil, then stir in the custard mix, stirring constantly until the mass begins to thicken. Fold under the cherries and let cool.

Step 3: Mix the remaining ingredients (flour, hazelnut, butter and sugar) in a bowl, kneading them with your hands to form crumble.

Step 4: Get the baking tin from the fridge. Fill in the cherry-mix, then top with the crumble.

Step 5: Bake your cake for about 45-50 minutes, 175°C.

Step 6: Eat the cake :) You might want to add whipped cream to make it even more yummie :)
