Healthy apple crumble
As we are going through apple season, I couldn’t skip an apple recipe! So today I'm sharing, a healthy apple crumble, which is perfect for dessert, breakfast or snack!
Vegan, soy free, gluten free, refined sugar free | Serves 2 | DESSERT
Ingredients:
For the apples:
- 2 apples
- 20g plant-based butter/margarine
- 1/2teaspoon of cinnamon
- 30ml water
For the crumble:
- 3 tablespoons of crunchy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons of maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons of oats
- 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (I used amino animo)
- Pinch of salt
- 1.2 teaspoon cinnamon
Serve with:
- Plant based yogurt
- Maple syrup
- Cinnamon
Steps:
1.Cut the apples in small pieces and place them in a pan on a medium heat with the butter.
2.Saute for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3.In the meantime, prepare your crumble. In a bowl, add the peanut butter and maple syrup, cover and place in the microwave for 1 minute.
4.Alternatively, add your bowl it over a pot with simmering water, creating a bain-marie (the bowl shouldn't be touching the hot water!). Wait for the mixture has melted and remove from the heat.
5.Remove the bowl over the bain-marie or microwave carefully (it's going to be hot!) and add the rest of the crumble ingredients. Mix well, I found that a fork worked better.
6.Back to the apples, add the cinnamon and water and cook until the water has been absorbed.
7.Place the apples in a small oven safe Pyrex, then sprinkle the crumble on top.
8.Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 10 minutes.
9.Serve with plant-based yogurt, maple syrup and a pinch of cinnamon.
Enjoy!
Notes:
I used pink lady apples, but you can use any apple you have/like.
I used crunchy peanut butter, but feel free to use smooth if you prefer.
You can substitute the maple syrup with any other sweetener of your preference.
