baked apple crisp

This healthy apple crisp is packed with fresh, juicy apples baked to the perfect texture, and includes a delicious crispy crumble sweetened with maple syrup. Because the ingredients are so simple, this is a paleo apple crisp. Serve with vanilla ice cream or coconut whipped cream!

Healthy Apple Crisp

medium apples, peeled, cored,

lemon juice

maple syrup

arrowroot flour

cinnamon

nutmeg

almond flour

coconut sugar

pecans

sea salt

coconut oil, room temperature (soft but not melted)

Coconut Whipped Cream (optional)

Prep

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 2.5-quart baking dish with coconut oil. 

For the apple filling

In a large mixing bowl, combine the apple slices, lemon juice, and maple syrup. In a separate small bowl, combine the arrowroot, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the arrowroot mixture to the apples and toss to coat. Pour the apple mixture into the baking dish and spread evenly. 

For the crisp topping

In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, arrowroot flour, coconut sugar, pecans, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add the solid coconut oil to the bowl and work it into the dry ingredients using a fork. I like to &#8220;cut&#8221; the coconut oil into the ingredients with the side of the fork until incorporated. Slowly add the maple syrup 1 tablespoon at a time and mix until a wet crumble forms. Crumble the crisp topping evenly overtop the apples in the baking dish.

Bake

 Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the filling is bubbling slightly on the edges.

Serve

Serve with coconut milk ice cream, coconut milk yogurt or coconut whipped cream.

This is the third time my family has made this recipe and we will definitely make it again soon! The only thing(s) we have done differently, were to replace the coconut oil with dairy free butter and to use monk fruit sweetener in replacement of the maple syrup. DELICIOUS.

Thank you for sharing Rachel! So glad you loved it.

This is SO GOOD! I swapped arrowroot for tapioca flour (all that I had), and it’s amazing.

I absolutely LOVE this apple crisp.  I switched it up a little by adding my own mix of chopped nuts because I wanted more of a variety of nuts for the health benefits.  This is my new favorite apple crisp.  Thank you!!

Ridiculously good! Replaced arrowroot with psyllium husk (avoiding potato derivatives) and it turned out excellent! Thanks for creating &amp; sharing this!

Awesome recipe. Tbh I changed a bit. Replacing the nuts with chopped macadamias coz we're Aussie and we love macadamias. I also added extra slivered almonds n flaked almonds - again we love our nuts! 😂 Also added extra nutmeg n cinnamon. I don't measure ingredients I just estimate n it turned out great! Very yummy. Thank you🙏🤗

I’ve made this apple bake probably 10+ times since I discovered it in 2020. It’s what I bring my mother in law for every holiday &amp; her birthday as it’s become her absolute favorite! It’s so easy and so delicious!!
