Best Apple Crumble

I mostly eat this for breakfast but I’m sure its a dessert to some people 😉

  For the Topping ( BEST part ) 

• 1/2 cup light spelt flour ( whole wheat will work )
• 3/4 cup old fashion rolled oats
• 1.5 tsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp coconut sugar
• 1.5 tbsp coconut oil , melted

For the Filling

• 5 cups finely diced green apples ( make sure they are cut small ish ) – Peel on is fine
• 1.5 tbsp corn starch or arrowroot starch
• juice of half a lemon
• 2 tbsp maple sugar
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp cloves
• 1.5 tsp cinnamon

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, and coat an 8″ pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2. To prepare the topping, whisk together the oats, flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Make a hole in the centre. Pour in the coconut sugar and melted butter mixture-  Stir until fully incorporated.
3. To prepare the filling, toss the apples with the cornstarch ( or arrowroot ) , cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves. Squeeze the lemon juice and toss –   in a large bowl until completely coated.
4. Transfer the filling to the prepared pan, and gently press down with a spatula. Sprinkle evenly with the topping.
5. Bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes or until the apples are fork tender. Cool completely to room temperature; then refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving to allow the juices to fully thicken.

Hope this is a quick + super easy weeknight treat for you / every week day breaky !
