Steps
Crumble Cake with Fig Puree
Take the butter out of the fridge so that it is as soft as an ointment
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a cake pan or line it with parchment paper with a removable bottom (9.5 inches)
Peel the figs, cut them into slices, then mash them with a fork until you get a puree
In a large bowl, put the all-purpose flour, butter, egg, baking powder, and sugar, and knead without compacting the mixture; it should be crumbly. To do this, gather the mixture in your hands and rub them together.
Spread 2/3 of the crumbs on the bottom of the cake pan, distributing them evenly without pressing.
Spread the fig puree on the bottom of the cake without reaching the edge,
and cover with the remaining crumbs. Bake in a hot oven for 30 minutes (350°F).
Let the crumble cool before unmolding it. Then place it on the serving plate.
Then decorate with the other figs to your liking.
