  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional)
  • 12 tbsp maple syrup or honey (optional, adjust to sweetness of apples)

For the Crisp Topping:

  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, toss sliced apples with melted coconut oil, cinnamon, lemon juice, and sweetener if using. Spread evenly in the prepared dish.

  4. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples and gently press down.
  5. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the topping is golden and the filling is bubbling.
  6. Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the topping to crisp up.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, use certified gluten-free oats.
  • To keep it vegan, use maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Serve warm with dairy-free ice cream or whipped coconut cream for a treat.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven for the best texture.
