Ingredients

• 6 medium Tart apples (such as Granny Smith)
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons Stevia sweetener (granulated)
• 1 cup Old-fashioned oats
• 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.25 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
• 4 tablespoons Butter (cold and cut into small cubes)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with a bit of butter or cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

Peel, core, and thinly slice the tart apples. Place the apple slices into a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Drizzle the lemon juice over the apples and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of stevia and the ground cinnamon. Toss the apples until they are evenly coated. Spread the apple mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

In another mixing bowl, combine the oats, whole wheat flour, chopped nuts, 2 tablespoons of stevia, and salt. Mix until combined.

Step 5

Add the cold butter cubes to the oat mixture. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, mix until the butter is incorporated and the mixture forms a crumbly texture.

Step 6

Stir the vanilla extract into the crumble topping, then spread the mixture evenly over the apples in the baking dish.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
