Steps

1FOR THE CRUMB CRUST
2Pre-heat oven to 350F/180C. Grease and flour, spray or line an 8 inch cake pan with parchment paper. (I used a springform pan)
3FOR THE APPLE FILLING
4In a large pot add the butter and melt add the brown sugar, apples and cinnamon, stir to combine, continue to cook for approximately 10-15 minutes, stirring often, add the cornstarch and continue to cook 3-5 minutes or until thickened, a little juice should remain. Remove from the heat and let cool 20-30 minutes.
5FOR THE CRUMB CRUST
6In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and the salt. Add the butter and combine to form a coarse crumb mixture, add the egg and combine, the mixture should still be crumbly.
7Add ½-⅔ of the crumb mixture to a lightly grease and floured or spray an 8 inch cake pan, gently press done. Pour the cooled apple filling on top, sprinkle with the remaining crumbs. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until lightly golden on top. Let cool in pan 15 minutes then move to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
