Ingredients:
-
3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup + 2 tbsp. almond flour
- 2 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp. nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 3/4 cup Nuts 'N More Apple Crisp High Protein Peanut Spread
- 3 tbsp. maple syrup
- 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp. melted coconut oil
- 3 tbsp. water
Filling:
-
5 cups chopped apples (we used honeycrisp)
- ¼ cup + 2 tbsp. maple syrup (+ more to taste for added sweetness)
- 1 ½ tsp. cinnamon
- ¼ tsp. nutmeg
- ¾ tsp. ground ginger
- 5 tbsp. butter
- 6 tbsp. water
- 1 ½ tbsp. cornstarch + 3 tbsp. water
Directions:
-
Preheat oven to 350° F.
-
Line a square 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
-
Add oats to a high-powered blender and blend into a flour-like consistency.
-
Pour the oat flour into a large bowl, then stir in the almond flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
-
Add in the Apple Crisp Spread, maple syrup, coconut oil and water.
-
Use a spoon or rubber spatula to blend the wet and dry ingredients until you have a crumble-like texture that sticks when pressed between your fingers.
-
Measure 3/4 cup of the crumble texture and set aside, then press the remainder into the bottom of the 8x8 pan.
-
To make the filling, in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, warm the butter and maple syrup. Once melted, add the chopped apples, 6 tbsp. of water, and spices to the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring often.
-
Whisk together the corn starch and water in a small bowl, then slowly pour over the apple mixture. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
-
Remove from heat, then pour apple filling over the crust.
Sprinkle the remaining ¾ cup crumble over top of the apples, then bake for 30-35 minutes until apples are soft.
-
Allow to cool for 30 minutes before transferring to the fridge. Bars are best refrigerated for at least 4 hours before slicing and serving. Enjoy with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
