Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the apple crisp.
Prepare Apple Mixture: In a bowl, combine the sliced apples with honey and water, stirring gently to coat the apples evenly and create a lightly sweetened base.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the oats, almond flour, chopped nuts, and cinnamon, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated for the crisp topping.
Combine Mixtures: Add the dry oat mixture to the apple mixture and mix thoroughly so the topping ingredients are evenly distributed among the apples.
Assemble in Baking Dish: Transfer the combined mixture into a baking dish, spreading it out evenly, then drizzle the coconut oil on top to help create a golden-brown crust when baked.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm to enjoy this deliciously healthy apple crisp.

Notes

Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a balanced sweet and tangy flavor.
For a nut-free version, omit chopped nuts or substitute with seeds like pumpkin or sunflower seeds.
Honey adds natural sweetness; adjust the amount based on your preference or substitute with maple syrup for a vegan option.
Ensure apples are sliced evenly for consistent baking.
Allow the crisp to cool slightly before serving to let juices thicken.
