Ingredients
  

Apple Filling
  • 6 medium Apples – tart and sweet for balanced flavor. A mix of sweet and tart apples is recommended.
  • 1/4 cup Sweetener – for a touch of natural sweetness. Adjust sweetness according to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon – adds warmth and depth of flavor. A pinch of nutmeg can be added for extra flavor.
  • 1 pinch Salt – enhances all the flavors. Just a pinch is enough.
Walnut Topping
  • 1 cup Walnuts – provide a crunchy texture and healthy fats. Chopped finely for even distribution.
  • 1 cup Almond flour – a low-carb alternative to traditional flour. Ensure it’s finely ground.
  • 1/4 cup Butter – lends richness and moisture. Melted butter is required for the topping.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C).
  2. Grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  3. Core and slice the apples into thin wedges.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the apple slices with sweetener and cinnamon.
  5. Let the apple mixture sit to release their juices.
Cooking
  1. Spread the apple mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  2. In another bowl, mix the almond flour, chopped walnuts, melted butter, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Sprinkle the walnut topping generously over the apples.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the topping is golden and the apples are tender.
Serving
  1. Once baked, allow the crisp to cool for a few minutes.
  2. Spoon it into serving dishes while warm.
  3. Optionally, top with whipped cream or keto-friendly ice cream for an indulgent treat.
