Units
Scale
- 4 apples, peeled and cut into slices
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 cup oats (gluten-free if needed)
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup coconut oil or butter, room temperature.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl mix the apples, lemon juice and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon together.
- In a bowl, mix together the oats, almond flour, coconut sugar and remaining cinnamon, nutmeg and salt until everything is incorporated. (Use a fork or your hands, mash the coconut oil or butter into the dry mixture until it’s well incorporated and forms small clumps.)
- Layer the apples in an 8×8 inch baking dish then sprinkle the crisp topping on top of the apples.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden brown on top.
Notes
- Try using firm apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Cortland.
- Always peel your apples for the best texture.
- Rolled oats give the best crisp topping texture.
- Mix the topping just until crumbly. Don’t overmix.
- Bake uncovered on the middle rack for even browning.
- Let the crisp rest 10 minutes before serving.
