Serves 6

Filling:

• 4 cups of peeled and sliced apples (4 med)
• 2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Topping:

• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup certified gluten-free oats (I like Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Rolled Oats)
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1/3 cup date sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup (1 for the topping and 1/2 to drizzle over the top)
• 1/3 cup coconut oil (make sure it is somewhat solid and not liquid)

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180
2. Place apples in an 8-inch square pan, pour lemon juice over. Add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, spices and vanilla, toss around to combine.
3. Mix almond flour, oats, spices, date sugar and maple syrup together in a medium sized mixing bowl. Cut in coconut oil in to make crumbly consistency.
4. Sprinkle over the apples, drizzle remaining 1/2 tablespoon of maple syrup over top and bake 30-40 minutes or until apples are tender and topping is golden brown. Serve warm- with some cream or yoghurt.
