Ingredients
  

For the Topping
  • 0.5 cup old fashioned oats Provides a delightful crunch; swap with gluten-free oats if needed.
  • 0.5 cup almond flour Adds a nutty flavor and structure; coconut flour works too, but use less.
  • 0.25 cup brown sweetener Infuses sweetness and depth; consider stevia or monk fruit as alternatives.
  • 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon Enhances the warm flavor; it's a must for that comforting taste!
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder Provides leavening for a lighter texture in the topping.
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter (cold) Adds richness and crumbly texture; can be replaced with coconut oil or vegan butter.
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt Balances sweetness to enhance the overall flavor profile.
For the Apple Filling
  • 2 medium apples (peeled and sliced) Granny Smith is a great lower-carb option.
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted) Binds filling ingredients together nicely; melted coconut oil is a suitable substitute.
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour Helps thicken the apple mixture for better consistency.
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice Adds acidity that beautifully balances the flavors.
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk Combines ingredients smoothly; feel free to use regular milk.
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract An essential flavor booster that enhances sweetness.
  • 0.25 cup brown sweetener Sweetens the filling; similar sugar substitutes can be used here.
  • 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon Infuses the apple mixture with warm, inviting flavor.
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt Elevates the taste of the apple filling.
