Apple crumble. So easy, but arguably one of the most delicious desserts. Perfect topped with coconut cream and served with hot coffee. I ate this for breakfast this morning. Don’t tell anyone 🙂
This apple crumble is also AIP-friendly, so no eggs, nuts, nightshades, or seeds. But it’s still delicious!

This is one of the rare AIP dessert recipes that I actually enjoy! I use honey instead of maple syrup (only 1 tbs for everything as I try to limit sugar as much as possible) and put cranberries and raisins with the apples. Great and thank you!

So glad that you enjoyed it! Love the idea of using dried fruit with the apples!

This recipe looks delicious AND it fits the paleo autoimmune protocol (a rare thing). So, thank you! I recently started a weekly Paleo AIP Recipe Roundtable through my blog, and I would love it if you linked up this recipe. I’m trying to expand resources for the AIP community.
