No-Peel Apple Almond Crisp
Serves 6
Filling:
- 3 medium large apples, cored and sliced thinly
- 1⁄4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- Zest from 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 Tablespoon arrowroot powder, or 2 teaspoons corn starch
- 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
Topping:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1⁄2 cup sliced almonds
- 1⁄3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1⁄2 cup Grade B maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄2 cup coconut oil, room temperature (can sub butter)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Make the filling: In a medium bowl, gently toss sliced apples with the rest of the ingredients until combined, then pour into a pie plate or cast iron skillet and spread evenly. Set aside.
- Make the topping: In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix with your hands until it starts to clump together. This won’t take long.
- Arrange the topping on the apple filling and bake for 40-45 minutes until the fruit is soft and bubbling and the top is golden brown.
- Serve warm with coconut whipped cream as I do, or with regular whipped cream or ice cream.
