The crumble cake with jam is a tart that is crispy outside and soft inside. Made with a shortcrust pastry that doesn’t need resting and homemade cherry jam, it’s very quick to make. The crumble cake with jam can be enjoyed at any time of the day, from breakfast to after dinner. This recipe also includes a lactose-free version.
