Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel and slice the zucchinis into thin slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick, to mimic apple slices.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, lemon juice, apple extract, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons of erythritol sweetener. Toss well to coat the zucchini slices evenly.
Transfer the zucchini mixture to a greased 8x8 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another bowl, prepare the crumble topping by mixing the almond flour, shredded coconut, chopped pecans, coconut flour, remaining erythritol, salt, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon.
Melt the butter and pour it over the dry crumble mixture. Mix until the topping resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the zucchini mixture in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the zucchini is tender.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or keto-friendly ice cream.
