You don't knead it: you rub the crumbs

Pecan nuts are broken by hand and added at the end.

What's needed
Serves 4, in a 24 cm diameter baking dish.
150g flour
100g lightly salted butter
50 g maple sugar (crumbled)
30g pecans
2 Golden Gala apples
1 tablespoon of maple sugar (apples)
30 g Pure Dark Maple Syrup
Seven Steps
The apples
Cut them unpeeled into not-too-large cubes. Place them in a bowl with maple sugar and maple syrup.
Baked
Mix well and pour into a 24 cm diameter baking dish.
The crumble
In another bowl, combine flour, maple sugar, and cold butter cut into small pieces. Rub with your fingertips: do not knead, but form large crumbs.
Pecans
Break them roughly with your hands and mix quickly.
Cover
Spread the crumble evenly over the apples.
Cook
In a preheated oven at 180°C for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serves
Lukewarm or room temperature.
Two things to know
The butter must be cold from the fridge. Soft butter binds the flour and the crumble turns into shortcrust pastry: when cold, the crumbs remain separate.
