1teaspoonblackstrap molasses
4teaspoonmaple syrup(See Notes)
4teaspoonraw honey(See Notes)
⅛teaspoonground cloves
olive oil for spraying on baking pan
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350℉.
For the Topping
In a bowl combine dry ingredients and mix. Add in coconut oil, maple syrup, honey and combine. I use a fork and my hands to thoroughly mix. Put in fridge.
For Apple Filling
In a separate bowl place cubed apples, cinnamon, honey, water. Mix gently to not mash apples.
Spray baking pan with olive oil (I used a 9” x 7” Pyrex but 8” or 9” squares also work). Pour in apple mixture.
Drop oat mixture over the top and gentle press (just enough to stick down any loose oats).
Bake at 350℉ for 40-45 minutes (My time is consistently 40 minutes).
Notes
I often store these overnight to bake in the morning so they have time to absorb flavors and the crumble has time to harden some. When doing this store the apple mixture separate from the topping.**For the topping you can use the honey and maple syrup combination, or you can use all maple syrup or all honey. When using all honey I like to decrease the total to 6 tsp. so it's not overpowering.**For oat topping you can use ½ oat flour or ½ almond instead of splitting into ¼ cups each.**Another option for fruit filling: 5 ½ c. cubed apples ½ c. nectarine (1 nectarine) ½ c. apricot (2 apricots) All other ingredients same as listed here.Have fun changing up the fruit filling!
