The gluten-free crumble cake is a dessert made with natural flours and without added starches. The crumble cake is a dessert inspired by the Mantuan sbrisolona, a traditional country cake, which was meant to be broken by hand and then soaked in grappa. I offer you both the classic version with butter and the lactose-free version.
