Ingredients

Apple filling

6 large apples peeled, cored, and sliced thin (I used Honeycrisp)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon arrowroot powder or cornstarch

Cobbler topping

1 ½ cup rolled oats
2 cups almond flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
⅔ cup maple syrup
½ cup coconut oil melted

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350F and grease a baking dish. I used an 11x8 pan.
Peel, core, and slice your apples about ⅛ inch thick.
Toss slices in mixing bowl with lemon juice, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and arrowroot powder. Set aside while preparing crumble.
In a bowl, mix together oats, almond flour, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla.
Pour in maple syrup and melted coconut oil. Stir until well combined.
Pour apples into greased baking dish, including the liquid in the bottom of the bowl.
Add dollops of cobbler mixture onto apples, evenly dispersing and covering as much of the top as possible.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, covering top halfway through with aluminum foil if starting to brown.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Slice the apples about ⅛ inch thin. This ensures they cook through evenly and become properly tender.
Tenting with foil. If the topping starts browning too early, cover with aluminum foil halfway through baking to protect it.
Let it cool before serving. It's best enjoyed warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream, rather than hot straight from the oven.
