Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 0.5 cup cold coconut oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 6 medium apples
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1.5 teaspoons cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
- 0.5 cup walnuts
- 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, and sea salt.
Add cold coconut oil to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your hands to create a crumbly texture.
Add the honey and egg, mixing until a dough forms. Shape into a ball, cover, and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Peel, core, and slice the apples. Place them in a large bowl and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Mix the arrowroot powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and coconut sugar in a small bowl. Add to the apples and toss until evenly coated.
Roll out the chilled dough between two pieces of parchment paper until it's about 1/8 inch thick and fits your pie pan.
Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie pan and press it into the bottom and up the sides. Trim any excess.
Pour the apple filling into the pie crust and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle chopped walnuts over the apple filling.
Cover the pie with an aluminium foil to prevent the crust from burning and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove foil and continue to bake for 20 more minutes or until the apples are tender and the pie is golden.
Allow the pie to cool for at least 1 hour before serving to let the filling set.
