Are we sure about Apple Crumble? I'm pretty sure it's a typical treat of France and mostly German for quite some time. Won't surprise me if it slightly evolved in GB recently but to be invented...

I found a reference to crumble pies from saxony from 1584. Although a bit different, using crumbles over fruit pies isnt that much different and i'd bet my left nipple, that it has been baked in the centuries before. The date of invention in this case looks like it is being determined through dated recipes of which earlier ones may have been lost.
