Paleo Apple Slab Pie (with AIP option)

Paleo Apple Slab Pie (AIP) | Cook It Up Paleo


As I sit here typing, I am really happy about this paleo apple slab pie recipe, but a little disappointed because today was going to be a big rock climbing day at my local climbing gym.  It didn’t happen because I don’t pay attention to what I’m doing.  I was cutting cabbage with literally the only sharp knife in our house the other night, and laughing and talking with my family.  AAAaaand I accidently slipped my thumb under the nice sharp knife and now I have a very nice-looking cut down the top of my thumb.  Sooo can’t rock climb.  Although if that’s the only hazard associated with this blogging thing, I’ll take it.

So today is another baking day, which is alright by me! We have a HUGE box of fresh, local apples in our basement.  I love how organic apples are all lumpy and weird-looking; it’s real food people! Anyway, when the apples come it’s fall and that means paleo pie!

Or more specifically, paleo apple slab pie, because it’s a heck of a lot easier to make.  I love perfectly fluted pie crust with nicely woven dough as much as the next girl, but that’s as long as I’m not making it, you know? I love this recipe because it’s a step up from an apple crumble  but so much simpler than an apple pie.  Plus it’s sweetened with only a little honey and the natural sugars from locally grown apples! #winning

    Do you think I could use palm shortening or coconut oil instead of butter or lard? I am AIP but don’t eat pork. This looks amazing!

    I don’t have tigernut flour, what would be a good substitute/\?

      Almond flour would probably work.

    Can you use ghee in place of the butter for the crust and/or filling?

      Totally!
