Steps for the Preparation of Crumble Cake with White Chocolate Cream
First, prepare the custard: place the egg yolks in a saucepan and mix them with the sugar. Add the flour and then gradually pour in the milk. Stir with a whisk to avoid lumps. Cook while continuously stirring until the cream thickens. Add the white chocolate, grated organic lemon peel, and stir until the chocolate melts. Cover with cling film directly on the cream’s surface and let it cool.
In a bowl, place the butter cut into pieces. Add the flour, sugar, eggs, salt, and grated lemon zest. Work with your fingertips to form crumbly dough.
Line a 9.5-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Use 3/4 of the crumbs to form the base and sides of the cake. Pour the cooled cream and cover with the remaining crumbs.
Preheat the oven to 350°F, static mode. Bake for about 45 minutes. Let it cool completely before removing from the pan.
Storage
In warm periods, it’s preferable to store it in the fridge. In winter, it can also be kept under a glass dome for a couple of days.
