For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the dough. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, cooking until the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter has a nutty aroma. Let cool slightly before adding to the recipe. Feel free to customize the crumble topping with chopped nuts, cinnamon, or orange zest. This Placek is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
