Creamy Lemon Crumble Custard Cake

This Creamy Lemon Crumble Custard Cake is a dreamy fusion of textures: a soft, buttery crust, a luscious lemon custard center, and a lightly crumbly golden top. Think lemon tart meets cheesecake, but easier and more comforting. It’s elegant enough for guests yet simple enough for everyday baking.
