Ingredients
4 medium to large baking apples (about 2 lbs), peeled, cored, and sliced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
1 tablespoon arrowroot flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1 ¼ cups (122 g) almond flour
⅓ cup walnuts, finely chopped
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of fine sea salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
2 tablespoons coconut oil or grass-fed butter, at room temperature
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine apples, lemon juice, cranberries, arrowroot flour, cinnamon, salt, and honey/maple syrup. Mix until evenly coated. Transfer mixture to the baking dish.
- In another bowl, mix almond flour, walnuts, cinnamon, and salt. Add vanilla, honey/maple syrup, and coconut oil or butter. Stir until crumbly.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit mixture.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm on its own or with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Substitute pears for apples for a pear-cranberry crisp.
Add orange zest or juice for a citrusy twist.
Use pecans instead of walnuts for a different flavor.
For a vegan option, use coconut oil or dairy-free butter.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Freeze baked crisp for up to 3 months and reheat in the oven.
