How to prepare
Prepare the streusel topping by mixing all the dry ingredients together and use the butter to connect them creating a powdery, chunky substance.
Dice the apples and pour the lemon juice over them adding the peel as well. Wash the raisins and if you wish, you can soak them in the rum for a couple of hours. Or add the rum at the last moment straight into the fruit substance. Heat everything in a pot stirring thoroughly. It is possible to add sugar or vanillin sugar. Mix the corn starch in some cold water and pour it into the fruit substance. Boil everything together for a moment adding the cinnamon and spread the resulting substance over a greased baking tray. Cover the surface with the prepared streusel topping.
You can prepare the plum fruit part cold.
Quarter the plums mixing them with the cinnamon, vanilla sugar and starch mixed in some water. Add the lemon juice, grated peel and possibly 2-3 tablespoons of alcohol. Mix it well and spread evenly across the baking dish or multiple smaller ones. Cover the surface with the streusel topping.
Bake the crumble cake in a large baking dish or multiple smaller ones. Bake it at 180 °C for about 35 minutes.
Serve the dish hot, but you will enjoy it cold as well. You can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some whipped cream.
