Paleo Apple Crisp (with a nutty crisp topping!)

This paleo apple crisp is a healthy maple-sweetened fall treat that has an incredible crunchy walnut topping, a gooey sensation of warm sweet apples and it’s simple to make. It’s also vegan, gluten-free, grain-free and dairy-free.

This apple crisp has all the signature traits of fall and is perfect for Thanksgiving. You can serve it as a dessert or an amazing sweet breakfast treat. But if you find it’s too sweet for breakfast, you can try these Paleo Apple Muffins.

Speaking of Thanksgiving, I’ll be making my Paleo Vegan Pumpkin Pie because we love it more than a traditional pumpkin pie. And as usual, this gluten-free vegan Swedish Apple Pie will make an appearance.

It’s not to say that this paleo apple crisp should only be reserved for holidays. But rather it’s the perfect dessert for apple season!

Ingredients:

For the filling:

  • Maple syrup
  • Lemon juice
  • Arrowroot starch/powder
  • Cinnamon
  • Nutmeg
  • Salt
  • 5 small to medium apples

For the topping:

  • Blanched almond flour
  • Coconut flour
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Refined coconut oil
  • Maple syrup
  • Salt
  • Chopped walnuts or pecans

Toppings:

Paleo Vegan Vanilla Sauce or vanilla ice cream

How to make apple crisp:

  1. Mix filling ingredients and stir in apples until combined, place in an ungreased pan
  2. Mix flour and cinnamon in a bowl add coconut oil, maple syrup and salt. Mix until combined
  3. Pulse nuts until they’re in small pieces and add to the topping mixture
  4. Bake 40 to 50 minutes
  5. Let it cool
  6. Top with vanilla sauce and serve

Note: if you use unrefined coconut oil, the crisp will have a slight coconut taste to it.

Do I have to use coconut flour?

I’ve had a lot of questions about the small amount of coconut flour in certain recipes asking if it is truly needed, or not. And I want to say right off the bat, it is necessary!

Coconut flour absorbs liquid and even though this apple crisp recipe only calls for 1 tablespoon, it’s needed to get that extra crunch that you want in a crisp. Without it, it won’t be as nice and crispy as it should be.

If you like grain-free baking, I definitely recommend getting coconut flour as a staple. It’s not expensive and it lasts a long time because you usually only use small amounts at a time.

So go ahead and get the coconut flour because you can try out other recipes like this Paleo Pumpkin Cake or these Pumpkin Spice Cookies. Not to mention these Coconut Flour Cookies or these Coconut Flour Brownies.

Do I have to use nuts?

The walnuts set this crisp apart from any other. I actually added more chopped walnuts than flour and it makes this apple crisp nice and crunchy. Normally, I would say you could leave out the nuts if you want, but not this time.

Nuts are essential in this apple crisp. Walnuts work, as well!

Will it be sweet enough with just maple syrup?

It only has 7 tablespoons for the entire crisp which means you need the sweetest apples you can find rather than tart ones.

If you like it sweeter, rather than add more sweetener, try adding this Vanilla Sauce. It’s paleo and vegan and is perfect to top off your fall treats.

And for a sugar-free fruit dessert, try this great looking Keto Blackberry Cobbler!

Can I use butter?

When I made this, I actually meant to use butter and accidentally used coconut oil instead. It ended up great because it became a vegan + dairy-free crisp!

If you want to use butter, you should probably use a little more – perhaps 3.5 tablespoons instead of 3? But that’s just a guess. If you use butter and it works (or doesn’t!), let me know the amount and I’ll update the post.

Will this crisp stay crispy?

The only downside to the grain-free topping is it will get a little soft on the second day. It’s the same with all paleo and grain-free crisps and crumbles that I’ve tried. So, if you don’t think you can eat all of it on the first day, just halve the recipe.

It’s delicious the second and third day, just not as crisp! Refrigerating it also helps prevent it from being soggy.

If you’re more into berries than apples this year, try this Paleo Blueberry Crisp. It’s basically the same, but with blueberries, so you’ll already have what you need.

Other crisps and crumbles:

  • Besides the Blueberry Crisp, I mentioned above, I also have this Cranberry Apple Crisp that is perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas. It’s gluten-free with a vegan option and is super easy to make.


  • Apple Cheesecake Crisp is a little more decadent with the cheesecake layer, but it’s so good. It’s oat-based, gluten-free and 100% whole grain.


  • This Blueberry Peach Crumble is ripe for the season. It’s gluten-free and whole grain and can be made with any fruit you like.


  • These Grain-free Mini Ginger Peach Crisps are great for individual desserts when you don’t need to make a whole pan.


  • This 100 Whole Grain Raspberry Crumble is perfect for the end of summer gatherings.

Paleo Apple Crisp (with a nutty crisp topping!)
  • Prep Time:
  • Cook Time:
  • Ready in:
  • Yield: 6-10 servings

Ingredients

    For the filling:

  • 1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch/powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 5 1/2 cups chopped and peeled apples (this was about 5 small to medium apples, 774 grams with the core and 630 grams of apples, post coring)
  • For the topping:

  • 3/4 cup (75 grams) blanched almond flour
  • 1 tablespoons (8 grams) coconut flour
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons (42 grams) refined coconut oil1, room temperature (not melted)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • slightly less than 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (110 grams) chopped pecans or walnuts (about 1/4" in size)
  • To serve:

  • paleo vegan vanilla sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and get out an 8"x8" (20cmx20cm) pan.
  2. Mix the maple syrup, lemon juice, arrowroot powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a large bowl.
  3. Peel the apples, core and cut into 1/3" pieces. Place the apples in the maple syrup mixture and stir until the apples are well coated in the mixture. Place in the ungreased pan.
  4. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the almond flour, coconut flour and cinnamon. Then add the coconut oil, maple syrup and salt and mix until combined.
  5. Pulse the pecans or walnuts in a food processor a few times until they're in small pieces (about 1/8" in size). You can also chop them by hand but the food processor takes a lot less time. Stir the nuts into the topping mixture.
  6. Drop walnut-sized pieces of topping over the apples. Gently press down any nuts that are sticking out so that they don't burn.
  7. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until the topping is brown and crisp and the apples are bubbling. The topping will crisp up much slower than a traditional crisp, but don't worry as it will crisp up towards the very end of the baking time. Cover the crisp with foil if the topping starts to brown too early.
  8. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve. If not serving immediately, once cool, loosely cover with a piece of plastic wrap (so the topping doesn't go soft). If storing overnight, properly cover the crisp with plastic wrap. Do note that the topping gets soft on the second day.

Notes

  1. If you use unrefined coconut oil, this crisp will likely have some coconut taste to it.

    Hi. Thank you for an awesome recipe!!! This is my second time to make it. I baked the apples and the topping separate. I wanted to keep the topping from getting soggy. It turned out great this way. I made the topping into little mound shaped cookies. I microwave the apple filling and crumble the topping over it. I discovered that the topping is an excellent cookie all by itself. I love this recipe and am adding it to me recipe book. It is wonderful. I eat grain free because it causes symptoms like inflammation, brain fog and intestinal issues. I feel better. I plan to review and try more of your recipes. Hippocrates said: “Let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be the food.” It is so true. Thanks for your contribution to this lifestyle. <3

    I have made this recipe time-and-time again. Instead of maple syrup I use monk fruit from Lankanto (not liquid) or coconut sugar. Maple syrup is way to sweet for me. I also added some pears and it was yummy. All my customers who I cook for love it and ask me to make this every month for them.

    I started making this recipe when I was pregnant with my now 2.5 year old son. I used to make one of these bad boys every week (admittedly sometimes twice a week) it’s such a good one. I like adding toasted coconut and salted sunflower seeds to the topping. I’ve also used molasses for half the maple syrup in the topping and it’s delicious! Last Thanksgiving I added a half cup of whole cranberries to the filling and it was a hit.

    Glad we stumbled upon this! It’s a keeper and easily modified for different fruits. While searching for a rhubarb apple crisp without a lot of sweeteners or flour we came upon this one. Modified is using about 4 cups of rhubarb and about 2 cups of apples. For the flour, we used flour made from coconut milk and almond milk pulp. Incredibly tasty. It was hard to wait for it to cool enough to try : )

    Used just the topping recipe- it was great! I didn’t have almond flour so I used 3/4 cup of roasted unsalted almonds and made almond meal. Followed the rest of the recipe as written. For a quick dessert I used my own canned apple pie filling with this topping. Even hubby liked it and he’s sort of fussy about desserts.

      I don’t consume sugar (unless it’s in the form of whole fruits and vegetables), so as a workaround for maple syrup I add stevia and/or monkfruit to taste along with a few drops of pure (not imitation) maple extract. It adds a lovely maple twist to this — and many other — recipes, without the sugar + calories.

      I also reduce the fat + calorie content by using a scant 1 tbsp of coconut oil and omitting the coconut flour, and subbing at *least* half of the almond flour with organic spelt, farro, buckwheat, or oat flour (my preference is actually 35g almond flour plus 40g of oat + spelt flour (50/50 blend). I also halve the amount of nuts. There’s definitely enough fat in the nuts and coconut oil to keep the topping from becoming too dry.

      Erin, thank you so much for this sharing this recipe! Even though I’m not at all fond of desserts and baked goods in general, I absolutely love this and have made it many (and I do mean MANY 😂) times.

    My family and I are embarking on a much healthier eating lifestyle, but we all have a sweet tooth, so I’m planning to make this as our Friday night splurge. Can I prep thus and bake it when we’re ready to eat it, or will it warm up nicely once baked? Also, can I substitute vanilla extract for the bean? Vanilla beans here are very pricey IMO AT $17 for one bean…I really want to use the vanilla sauce, but at that price I might as well use SO Delicious dairy free vanilla ice cream.

      Hi Melissa! Sorry for my slow reply. We have a newborn at home and I’m a little slow when it comes to blog stuff. You can definitely use vanilla extract instead of the bean! I’ve never prepared it ahead of time and then baked it nor have I reheated it so I honestly can’t say for sure. My guess would be to prepare it, refrigerate it, let it come to room temp, and then bake. I hope you’ll enjoy it!

          Peaches are so much juicier than apples so I’m guessing the filling would be a lot more liquidy. I have no idea how much extra arrowroot you’d have to add to prevent that as I haven’t tried it! Good luck if you try it out. :)

    Oh man, I LOVE how amazing this looks! The fact that it’s maple syrup sweetened is perfect :)

    This is just fall in dessert form! Love baking with coconut flour. I always have it on hand.

    I’d definitely eat either an apple OR a blueberry version!! But I think the apple would be my favorite. Love the look of your topping!

    My favourite dessert growing up was my Mum’s apple crumble, but I have to admit this looks equally delicious. I’m 100% going to give it a try!

      Looks like you’re going to be busy making my apple crisps and crumbles, it seems. ;) I hope you’ll enjoy this, too! Thanks for your comments today.

    This recipe sounds great! However, I love my crisp to have oats – any suggestions to add these? Thank you.

      Thanks! It sounds like what you want is a crumble. :) Here’s a great crumble that’s also gluten-free and is made in an 8″x8″! I hope that helps.

    I love apple crisp in the fall! My family doesn’t like it, so I almost never get it. This looks wonderful!

      Thanks! And haha. Yeah! Go for it! Just make them on separate days so the topping doesn’t get soggy. ;)

      Thanks, Brigitte! I’m super excited to be almost finished. :) And I hope you’ll enjoy the crisp if you try it! I actually made this as a way to get rid of some of the 30 pounds of apples I have right now but it didn’t really help. I guess I’ll have to make some apple sauce. :)
