Brrrrrr! Winter is well and truly here for us Tableland North Queenslanders and while comparatively it is mild it’s cold enough to get out the ugg boots, scarves and all the other winter woollies. This gluten free, grain free, dairy free, vegan and refined sugar free crunchy apple crumble is sure to warm your soul!
Ingredients
6 medium Granny Smith apples – peeled cored and cut into wedges
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon of clove
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup coconut oil (non-dairy version use butter)
Topping
50g coconut oil
1/4 cup Green Banana Flour (Natural Evolution Ultimate Gluten Free Baking Flour)
1 cup slivered almonds
1/4 cup coconut sugar
Method
1. Preheat oven to 160C. Combine apple, cinnamon, clove, sugar and coconut oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Keep covered and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally ensuring that apples don’t burn. When ready apples will be tender. If there is excess liquid simply strain off (can be retained later for serving). Transfer to oven safe dish (20cm round or similar).
2. Topping: In a bowl use your fingers to rub ingredients together until mixture is like coarse bread crumbs.
3. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool for 5 minutes. Serve as desired and enjoy!
