Ingredients:
- 8-10 crisp apples (I chose a mixture of apple varieties, including Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, and Honeycrisp)
- 1/2 lemon (approximately 3 tbsp)
- Almond meal (approximately 1 1/2 cups)
- Sea Salt (approximately 1/4 tbsp)
- All-Natural Honey (approximately 2 tbsp)
- Butter (approximately 5 tbsp, also make sure it’s real butter, cold, and cut into chunks)
- Cinnamon (approximately 1 tbsp)
- Walnuts (chopped, approximately 1 cup)
Directions:
- Wash and cut the apples into thin slices (recommended 1/4 inch slices). Reminder to remove the seeds!
- Layer the apple slices almost to the top of a baking dish and squeeze 1/2 cut lemon over the apples.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
- Combine the remaining ingredients into your Cuisinart mixer and pulse for about 10 minutes until you get a crumble topping.
- Spread the crumble topping over the layered apples and sprinkle a hand-full of chopped walnuts.
- Bake for 80 minutes, or until the crumble topping is lightly toasted.
- Enjoy!
As a holiday tradition, my best friend Jennifer and I get together to bake a special dessert and watch our guilty-pleasure movie favorite, The Holiday.
Here’s Jennifer looking cute-as-ever with her baby bump. She definitely has that beautiful pregnancy glow!
