  • When selecting apples for the filling, choose ones that are sweet and crisp for better flavor.
  • If you prefer a nut-free topping, you can leave out the pecans or substitute them with other nuts or seeds.

  • For the apple filling, substitute honey for the brown sugar. Honey is a natural sweetener and can provide a richer flavor.
  • For the crumble topping, substitute almond flour for all-purpose flour. Almond flour is gluten-free and provides a nutty flavor, which can bring an extra layer of flavor to the dish.

Apple Crumble with Walnuts: Replace the pecans with 3 tbsp of chopped walnuts in the crumble topping.

Apple Crumble with Coconut: Replace the oats with 3 tbsp of shredded coconut in the crumble topping.


Roasted Honey Garlic Carrots: Roasted carrots with a honey garlic glaze. The sweetness of the honey and garlic pairs perfectly with the tartness of the apples in the crumble.
