Servings:

22 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup white sugar¾ cup white sugar
¾ teaspoon baking powder¾ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon fine salt¼ teaspoon fine salt
¾ cup frozen unsalted butter¾ cup frozen unsalted butter
22 large egg yolks
11 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
11 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, or as needed

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2
Make crumble: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk until thoroughly combined. Grate in frozen butter, stopping occasionally to toss butter into flour mixture until coated.
3
Stir in egg yolks and vanilla with a fork until egg is mostly absorbed. Add 1 teaspoon vinegar; mix briefly. Use your hands to finish mixing, squeezing until clumps form, but mixture remains mostly dry. Add more vinegar if needed. Set crumble aside.
4
Make filling: Combine blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries in another large bowl. Add sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cayenne pepper. Mix until well combined and sugar and cornstarch are mostly dissolved.
5
Place about 1/2 of the crumble mixture into the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. Press mixture down using a flat cup until well compacted. Spread berry filling on top. Sprinkle remaining crumble mixture over berries, squeezing some of the crumble into clumps.
6
Bake in the preheated oven until top is beautifully browned and berry filling bubbles, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before serving, about 30 minutes.
