Ingredients
The Apple Part:
The "Crisp" Part (Topping)
- 6 Tbsp coconut oil pastured butter, or ghee softened
- 1 cup raw pecans
- 3/4 cup blanched almond flour
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground allspice
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
- In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with the spices, then put the apples in a 9 or 10 inch pie dish or baking dish and set aside.
- For the crisp topping, put all the ingredients in a food processor and process or pulse until the pecans are finely ground and a paste is created.
- Spread the topping all over the apples to fully cover (or as fully as possible) and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes - 1 hour or until the apples are bubbly and the topping is brown and crisp.
- Let sit for at least 30 minutes to cool down before serving warm.
- There will be no leftovers, I can assure you of that! If you're lucky enough to have some left you can store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
- Enjoy!
