Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced apples, chopped dates, and orange juice.
- Add the cinnamon stick and stir to combine.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the dates have broken down to form a sticky, sweet mixture, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the cinnamon stick and discard.
- Transfer the apple-date mixture to a baking dish and spread it evenly.
- In a bowl, combine the oats, chopped almonds, and shredded coconut meat.
- Stir until the mixture is well combined.
- Sprinkle the oat-almond-coconut mixture evenly over the apple-date filling in the baking dish.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Serve warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
Tips:
- Choose a mix of apple varieties for a more complex flavor profile.
- Soak dates in water for a few minutes if they are too hard to ensure they blend smoothly.
- Use rolled oats instead of instant oats for a better texture in the crumble topping.
- For a nut-free option, substitute almonds with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds.
- Add a pinch of salt to the crumble topping to enhance the flavors.
- Serve the crumble warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra indulgence.
