Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 0.33 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 5 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and sea salt. Stir in the melted coconut oil, egg, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until the dough is well combined and forms a ball.
Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Use a fork to pierce the crust several times to prevent bubbling.
Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool while preparing the filling.
In another large mixing bowl, toss the peeled and sliced apples with lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and arrowroot powder until evenly coated.
Arrange the apple mixture evenly over the pre-baked crust.
Cover the baking dish with foil and return to the oven. Bake for an additional 25-28 minutes until the apples are tender.
Remove the foil for the last 5 minutes of baking to allow the apples to caramelize slightly.
Remove the apple pie slice from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
