Preparation: Crumble Cake with Fragrant Lemon Cream
Preliminaries for both traditional and Bimby versions:
Take the butter out of the fridge so it becomes soft like an ointment (if using butter).
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour the cake tin or cover it with parchment paper with a 9-inch opening base
In a saucepan, heat the milk with the vanilla and the peel of 1 lemon
Meanwhile, separately, using an electric whisk or a stand mixer, whip the yolks and sweetener/sugar until a fluffy and frothy mixture is obtained. Then add the oat/tapioca/cornstarch flour (according to nutritional choice), and work again.
When the milk gradually starts to boil, add the whipped eggs, stir gently, and wait for the first bubbles to appear on the surface.
At this point, remove the pot from the heat and quickly mix with a whisk. The cream will thicken immediately.
Transfer it to a wide, shallow dish, cover with food-safe plastic wrap in contact, and let it cool.
In a large bowl, put the chosen flour, oil, egg, baking powder, and sweetener, and knead, avoiding compacting the mixture that should come out crumbly.
To do this, gather the mixture between your hands and rub them against each other.
Transfer 2/3 of the crumbs to the bottom of the cake tin, distributing them evenly without pressing.
Distribute the lemon cream on the cake bottom in spoonfuls, without pressing, it will spread on its own with the heat, then cover with the remaining crumbs.
Bake in a hot oven for 30 or 35 minutes (350°F). Let the crumble cake cool before removing it from the mold.
