Equipment

  • 5.5 qt dutch oven

Ingredients

For the Crumble

  • 2 cups of pecans blended
  • 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup of brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp of cinnamon
  • 2 tsp of nutmeg
  • 4 tbsp of maple syrup
  • 4 tbsp of butter softened

For the Filling

  • 10 small apples peeled cored and thinly sliced
  • juice from one half a lemon
  • 1/4 cup of maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp of whole milk
  • 1 tbsp of flour
  • 1 tbsp of cinnamon
  • 1 tsp of coriander

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F
  • For the crumble, whisk dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl.
  • Add maple syrup and butter and mix until well combined.
  • Add all the ingredients for the filling into the dutch oven and toss to mix.
  • Use a spoon or your fingertips to drop the crumble topping evenly over the filling.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.

Notes

Feel free to add oats to your pecans if you prefer. Crumbles are forgiving and can take many substitutions. Same for the filling. If you can't find enough apples, berries compliment apple crumbles very well and work great as a substitute. Mix varieties of apples for some diversity.
