For the Crust

Sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Add the butter and toss to coat. Add the ice water one tbsp at a time and stir together with a wooden spoon until it starts to form a ball. Add an additional tbsp of ice water if the dough remains dry and crumbly.

Wrap in clingfilm and chill for one hour.

Flour a surface and roll out the dough in envelope fold three times.

To envelope fold; roll out the dough into a rectangle, then fold the top 1/3rd in and the bottom 1/3rd over that. Rotate 90 degrees and repeat twice more.

Wrap in clingfilm and chill for another two hours.

For the Filling

Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celcius.

For the crumble topping stir together the flour, sugar and butter. Keep stirring until it reaches the consistency of small crumbs. Keep in the fridge while you prepare the rest.

Peel, core and slice the apples into small pieces. Then toss with the sugar, flour cinnamon and lemon juice.

Roll out the dough into a big, thin circle to fit your cakeform. Place it in, press in the sides and trim the edges on top. Place in the apple mixture and top with the crumble topping.

Bake for 45-55 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
