Pink Lady apple pie with almond flour crust


                                 
                                                                                                            Hello everyone, 
Hope you are all doing great.   Mothers, it is now your turn to spoil Dad with this amazing almond flour crust apple pie for Fathers day.  I swopped out some ingredients to put a more healthy spin on it and I must tell you, it is still absolutely delicious.  Was also easy to throw together. 


For the crust: 
2 cups almond flour
Pinch sea salt
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 egg
  1. For the filling
  1. 500g of Pink Lady apples. Peel and sliced thin 
  2. 2 tablespoons honey
  3. 1 teaspoon  cinnamon
  1. 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  1. 2 tablespoons arrowroot flour 
  2. (you get this from any health shop)
  1. 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  1. Pinch sea salt

For the topping
    1. 1/3 cup almond flour
    1. 1/3 cup xylitol
    1. 1/2 cup oats 
    2. 4 tablespoons butter or margarine

Place flour and salt in food processor and pulse briefly (or bowl and use a mixer). Add coconut oil and egg and pulse briefly.  Press dough with fingers into a 9-inch pie dish. Bake at 200deg  for 10 minutes.



While pie is blind baking in the oven, put all ingredients  into a large pan over medium heat. Cover the pan, and stir occasionally. Once the liquid from the apples has thickened and the flour has dissolved, remove from heat. Transfer the cooked apples to the blind-baked pie crust.

Pulse all of the ingredients for the topping,  in a food processor. Spread the  mixture over the top of your pie.

Bake the pie in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 200 deg , or until the crust is golden brown and the crumble has toasted up. Cool and serve.
