Apple Streusel Bake

Preheat the oven to 175°C fan (200°C top/bottom heat) and grease a baking dish (approx. 1 litre) well.

Melt the butter and let it cool briefly.

Toast the almond slivers in a dry pan until golden brown, then remove and let cool.

Place the flour, 50 g sugar, melted butter, finely grated lemon zest, vanilla sugar and a pinch of salt into a bowl and use the dough hooks to work into streusel.

Chill the streusel in the fridge for about 15 minutes.

Wash, peel, quarter and core the apples, then drizzle with lemon juice; wash the raisins and let them drain well.

Arrange the apple quarters evenly in the dish, sprinkle the toasted almonds, raisins, cinnamon and 2 tbsp sugar over them, then spread the streusel on top as the final layer.

Bake the casserole for about 25 minutes until crispy, let cool briefly and serve with whipped cream if desired.
