Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
Apple Filling:
5 apples
juice from 1/2 lemon
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 1/2 tbsp honey or maple syrup if vegan
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Topping:
2/3 cup coconut oil melted
1/4 tbsp honey or maple syrup if vegan
2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt
1 1/3 cup almond flour
2/3 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
2/3 cup walnuts roughly chopped
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 390 degrees Fahrenheit.
Peel and core the apples and cut into small chunks. Place in a bowl and top with the lemon juice to stop from browning.
Place a 7 inch in diameter cast iron skillet on the stove on medium-high heat. Add the coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg to the skillet and cook for approximately 2 minutes until hot then add in the apple pieces and stir to coat them in the sauce.
Cook the apples for approximately 8 minutes until they are soft.
While the apples are cooking, in a bowl stir together all of the ingredients for the topping. Spoon the mixture evenly over the apples. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes until the topping is golden in color.
