Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients

  

• 3 cups sliced apples (e.g., Granny Smith) peeled and cored
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup almond flour for the crumble topping
• 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or walnuts) optional, for topping
• 1/4 cup granulated erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted

Equipment

• Chef's Knife
• Mixing bowls
• Baking dish
• Measuring Cups and Spoons
• Oven

Method

 

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine sliced apples, lemon juice, and cinnamon, tossing until the apples are evenly coated. Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
   3 cups sliced apples (e.g., Granny Smith), 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon lemon juice
   
2. In another bowl, prepare the crumble topping by mixing together almond flour, erythritol, chopped nuts (if using), and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with visible chunks of butter and nuts.
   1 cup almond flour, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or walnuts), 1/4 cup granulated erythritol, 1/4 cup unsalted butter
   
3. Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apple layer in the baking dish, covering all the fruit. Press down slightly to help the topping adhere and ensure even baking.
   1 cup almond flour, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or walnuts), 1/4 cup granulated erythritol, 1/4 cup unsalted butter
   
4. Bake the dessert in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and crispy, and the apples are bubbling around the edges. You should see a caramelized color on the crumble and hear a gentle bubbling sound when it’s ready.
   
5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. The crisp should have a crunchy topping with tender, aromatic apples underneath.
