Description
A juicy twist on the fall classic, plums are a wonderful addition to this GAPS-legal dessert.
Ingredients
Fruit
- 4 large plums, pitted and sliced
- 6 small apples, cored and sliced
- 1 Tbs fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 cup raw honey
- 1/4 tsp unrefined salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 3 tsp coconut flour
- 3 Tbs butter (in 3 pats)
Topping
- 1/2 cup crispy almonds
- 1/2 cup crispy walnuts
- 1/4 cup shredded dried coconut
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (just vanilla in alcohol for GAPS)
- 1/8 tsp unrefined salt (less if your crispy nuts are salty)
- 2 Tbs raw honey
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375° F. In a large bowl, mix fruit with flour, cinnamon, lemon juice, honey, and salt. Place fruit mixture in a 9.5 in pie plate, or baking dish. Put butter pats on top. Bake for 35-40 minutes (longer if you like your apples soft).
Meanwhile, in a food processor pulse all ingredients for the topping mixture until the nuts are about the size of rolled oats.
Once fruit is bubbling and apples are to your liking, spread the topping over the fruit and bake for another 12 minutes or until topping is lightly browned.
Enjoy with GAPS sour cream!
Notes
If using the smaller Italian prune plums, add 7 plums rather than 4 and reduce the honey in the fruit mixture. I used small gala apples for this recipe. If using a tart apple variety, you may want to increase the honey.
Prep time includes time slicing and coring fruit. The time making the topping is done while the fruit is cooking, so the total cook time is only 70 minutes.
