Description

Baked Breakfast Apple Crisp that’s naturally sweetened with maple syrup and dates. Perfect with yogurt for breakfast or ice cream for dessert.


Ingredients

Apple Crisp Filling

  • 57 apples, cored and cut into 1/2″ slices (choose a mix of sweet and tart- I used Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 TBSP vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 lemon, squeezed
  • 1/3 cup filtered water

Crumble Topping

  • 1 cup gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats (or sub more nuts for grain-free)
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 1 cup dates, pitted
  • 1/2 cup + 2 generous TBSP runny almond butter

For serving


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a large baking dish.
  2. Add the apples, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla protein powder, and lemon to a large mixing bowl and toss until they’re well-coated.
  3. Add the apples to the baking dish in an even layer and cover them with filtered water. Place the baking dish the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the apple are soft.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the crumble topping. Add the oats, almonds, and dates to a food processor and process until you have a rough meal. Pour the meal into a bowl and add the almond butter. Mix everything until it’s well-combined and sticky. Add more almond butter if it gets too thick.
  5. Once the apples are done baking, remove the baking dish from the oven. Use your hands to crumble the almond oat mixture on top of the baked apples in large clumps until they’re completely covered.
  6. Add the dish back to the oven and bake it for an additional 20-30 minutes, until the crumble top is golden brown and the apples are soft and gooey.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven, allow it to cool slightly, then serve the apple crisp warm with 1/2 cup almond milk yogurt and optional cookies.
  8. Store the leftover crisp in the refrigerator for 5-7 days and reheat before serving.
