Description
There’s not a whole lot that makes you feel cozier than enjoying a bowl of warm, just out-of-the-oven apple crisp. This simple recipe is made with freshly sliced apples coated in cinnamon and honey, then topped with a sweet buttery oat crumble. The filling has a little bit of almond flour added to create a bubbling sauce that allows the natural sweetness of the sweet apples to take center stage. We love this recipe because it uses absolutely no refined sugar, is gluten-free and a much healthier, low-carb version of a family favorite!
Ingredients
Crisp topping:
- 2/3 cup almond flour
- 1 & 1/3 cup oats
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
- 3 tablespoons butter, cold
Filling:
- 5 Granny smith apples (or whatever apples you prefer)
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
Crisp topping:
- In a medium bowl, combine all crisp ingredients, except butter. Mix to combine.
- Cut butter into small cubes. Using a fork or your hands, squeeze and mash the butter into the mixture until it forms a lumpy texture. Chill the topping in the fridge until you’re ready to use it. (This allows it to firm up).
Filling:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease a 9 x 9 baking dish.
- This step is key: Core and THINLY slice your apples, placing the slices in a large bowl.
- Gradually add flour into bowl and work into apples until they’re evenly coated. Add honey and vanilla; mix by hand. Sprinkle cinnamon over apples and mix. Once evenly coated, pour apple mixture into greased dish and spread.
- Sprinkle crumble mixture evenly on top of apples.
- Place in the oven and bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, until crisp is golden brown and apples are soft and bubbling. If the top of your crisp begins to burn, loosely tent foil overtop. Remove from oven and allow crisp to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
