Recipe: Apple Crumble with Almond Paste and Granola
Apple crumble is one of those cozy desserts that I just can’t get enough of, especially during winter and fall, when it’s cold outside. My recipe has almond paste, which tastes delicious together with the apples. In Denmark, I would use Danish marzipan (best marzipan in the world, if you ask me), but in the US I’ve found that marzipan is much too sweet and have too little almonds, so almond paste is a better bet.
The addition of granola brings extra texture and flavor, and I put it under the crumble topping so it doesn’t get burned. I’m using Tina’s Hungry Bird Eats granola with Cardamom and Cinnamon, which is perfect for this recipe, but you can use other kinds of granola too. Though I would recommend granola without chocolate and dried fruits.
Regarding apples, I would usually go for tart green apples, but when Tina and I made the video for this recipe, we only had red apples on hand. Turns out, they worked out nicely too.

Ingredients
- Crumble
1 ⅔ cups 1 ⅔ (200g) all-purpose flour
¾ cup ¾ (150 g) sugar
1 ⅓ sticks 1 ⅓ (10 tbsp, ⅔ cup, 150g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Pinch of salt
- Filling
4-5 4-5 apples
2 tablespoons 2 sugar
1 teaspoon 1 ground cinnamon
4 oz 4 almond paste
½ cup ½ Cardamom + Cinnamon Granola
Directions
- Prepare the crumble topping
- Place the cold butter cubes in a mixing bowl. Add flour, sugar, and salt.
- Rub the butter into the dry ingredients using your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Set aside.
- Prepare the apples
- Peel the apples and cut into cubes.
- Toss the apple cubes with the sugar and cinnamon until evenly coated.
- Assemble the Layers
- Arrange the apples in an even layer in a baking dish.
- Scatter chunks of almond paste evenly over the apples.
- Sprinkle granola over the almond paste.
- Finally, spread the crumble mixture evenly over the granola layer.
- Place the assembled crumble in the preheated oven and bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Serve while still warm. The apple crumble tastes delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of sour cream, Greek yogurt, or whipped cream.
