Ingredients

  • 6 large apples, cored, peeled, and sliced Granny Smith or Pink Lady
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • cup real maple syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons 100% apple juice (sugar free)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1-½ teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

TOPPING

  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • cup almond flour
  • cup sliced (slivered) almonds
  • cup honey, preferably local
  • 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 or 10-inch cast iron skillet and set aside.
  • Place apples in a large glass bowl and toss with the lemon juice. Add maple syrup, apple juice, cinnamon, allspice, thyme leaves, and salt. Toss with a spoon to combine and set aside.
  • Combine topping ingredients in a separate bowl and stir until the oats are well coated and all ingredients are well combined. Set aside.
  • Pour apple mixture into the skillet and spread evenly on the bottom. Spread the topping evenly across the top of the apple layer.
  • Place into pre-heated oven on the center oven rack and bake for 30 minutes. If the top layer is nicely browned, cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning. Continue baking for another 15-20 minutes or until the apple crisp is nice and bubbling. Remove from oven and set aside to cool for 5-10 minutes.
  • Serve warm with some vanilla bean ice cream or whipped cream, or both if desired!
