Ingredients

• For the Apple Filling:
• 2-3 medium firm apples (such as Honeycrisp, Gala, or Granny Smith), peeled, cored, and diced
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional, adjust to apple sweetness)
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot powder (optional, for thicker filling)
• For the Crumble Topping:
• 1/2 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
• 1/4 cup whole wheat flour (or almond flour for gluten-free)
• 2 tablespoons coconut sugar or brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Pinch of salt
• 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter or coconut oil, cut into small pieces
• 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts or pecans (optional, for added crunch)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish (e.g., 8×6 inch or 4 individual ramekins).
2. Prepare the Apple Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the diced apples with maple syrup (if using), lemon juice, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch (if using). Toss gently until the apples are evenly coated.
3. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
4. Prepare the Crumble Topping: In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, coconut sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
5. Add the cold butter or coconut oil pieces to the dry ingredients. Use your fingertips or a pastry blender to cut the fat into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. If using, stir in the chopped nuts.
6. Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the apple filling in the baking dish.
7. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and bubbly, and the crumble topping is golden brown and crispy.
8. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of milk.
