Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish or similar-sized dish and set aside.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place them in a mixing bowl and toss with the lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Spread the apple mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, chopped pecans (if using), remaining cinnamon, and salt.
Pour the melted coconut oil and the remaining 2 tablespoons of maple syrup into the dry ingredients. Mix until the mixture is crumbly and well-coated.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples, ensuring full coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
Let the apple crisp cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy as-is or with a dollop of yogurt or a scoop of dairy-free ice cream for a truly satisfying treat!
