Apple filling
- 6-7 large apples (I used 3 Honeycrisp and 3 Granny Smith peeled, cored, and sliced
- 2 tsp arrowroot powder or tapioca starch
- 2 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
- ⅓ cup coconut sugar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp nutmeg
- ¼ tsp allspice
Topping
- ⅓ cup cashews
- ⅓ cup almonds
- ⅓ cup pecans
- 3 pitted dates
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- ¼ cup shredded coconut
- 2 tbsp ghee or coconut oil - solid at room temp
- pinch sea salt
Preheat oven to 375. Spray a 9x9 casserole dish with cooking spray (I used coconut oil). Add all filling ingredients to a large bowl and mix well. Set aside while you make the topping. Add all topping ingredients to a food processor and pulse a few times until it resembles granola. Add filling to the casserole dish and spread the topping overtop evenly.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until cooked through and browned on top. Serve topped with dairy free ice cream or whipped cream! Enjoy!
