Coconut Flour Apple Crumble (nut-free)

When Phoebe invited me to her Virtual Viewing Party and All-American Potluck, the first thing that popped into my mind was apple pie.

I mean, besides hot dogs, what is more American than apple pie?

Only, I am not a huge fan of apple pie.

Don’t ask me why, I am not 100% certain; I just know that even before being diagnosed with celiac disease, apple pie was never really my thing.

What I do love though is a good apple crumble. Laced with cinnamon and just the right amount of crunch, a good apple crumble always seems to hit the spot.

This dish makes enough for a party.  Feel free to half the recipe and bake it in a smaller pan if you must (9X9 square should do), but I love desserts that can feed the crowd and this one is no exception.

Grain-free, nut-free, egg-free and refined sugar-free, you’ll only find good stuff here. Eat it up! xo

 

 

Coconut Flour Apple Crumble (nut-free)

Ingredients

    Filling
  • 3lbs Apples (organic is best, I prefer Cortland’s for baking)
  • ¼ c Coconut Oil
  • ¼ c Palm Syrup (Honey, Agave or Maple Syrup would work well, too)
  • 1 Tbs Cinnamon
  • ½ Tbs Nutmeg
  • ½ tsp Cloves
  • ¼ tsp Sea Salt
  • Topping
  • ½ c Coconut Flour
  • 1 c Coconut Flakes
  • ½ c Palm Sugar (Turbandino or other non-refined dry sugar, just not in liquid form)
  • ½ c Coconut Oil
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp Sea Salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350f.
  2. Prepare 13x9 in baking pan by greasing generously with coconut oil, set aside.
  3. Prepare apples by washing, coring and slicing each, placing wedges into large mixing bowl. Carefully drizzle ¼ c coconut oil, palm syrup, 1 Tbs cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and sea salt over apple slices, mixing with hands to ensure even coating throughout.
  4. Spread slices evenly throughout pan, set aside.
  5. Prepare topping by mixing coconut flour, coconut flakes, palm sugar, coconut oil, cinnamon and sea salt in medium sized mixing bowl, stirring until an easy crumb is created.
  6. Sprinkle topping evenly over seasoned apple slices.
  7. Bake at 350f for 20 min or until slices are lightly tender and the topping is golden brown.
  8. Serve as-is or with your favorite non-dairy vanilla ice cream.
  9. Makes 8-10 servings

  1. I’ve been looking for great gluten-free crumble recipes. Thank you for bringing yours to the virtual potluck Sunny! Really appreciate you cheering me (and all of Team USA) on! xoxo Phoebe

  2. Yum!! Nut free and paelo friendly…can’t wait! Pinned

  3. Thank you for making a nut-free recipe. I’m going to try using a mix of apples and pears.

  4. I really love this recipe, but I have made some changes over the years. I make it with maple syrup in the bottom and coconut palm sugar in the top. I like a lot of topping, so I use 2 lbs apples, and then I increase the topping by 1/2. I also use both flaked and shredded coconut in the topping (1/2 and 1/2). I use far less cinnamon and nutmeg in the filling (1 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp nutmeg ). I also slightly increase the salt in the topping. I prefer the apples to get more soft, so I bake for about 30-35 minutes.
