This Caramelized Apple and Cinnamon Crumble is the ultimate comforting dessert—warm, satisfying, and nourishing for your body and mind.
It’s a much healthier twist on the classic crumble and fits beautifully into a gut-healthy, anti-inflammatory lifestyle. Completely dairy-free, gluten-free, grain-free, Paleo, and refined sugar-free, this is the kind of guilt-free Cinnamon Crumble that Eat Burn Sleep is known for.
Instead of wheat flour, this version uses ground almonds, which are naturally alkaline and gentle on digestion. Almonds are also packed with vitamin E, magnesium, and healthy fats that support brain, skin, and heart health. Replacing refined white sugar with coconut sugar offers a lower-glycemic option that’s kinder to your blood sugar levels. Coconut sugar also contains inulin, a prebiotic fiber, and has antifungal properties that help fight candida.
The apples are gently caramelized to bring out their natural sweetness, enhanced with warming cinnamon, which is known to help regulate blood sugar and support digestion. The crumble topping is golden, nutty, and deliciously crisp—perfect for pairing with soft, syrupy apples beneath.
This dessert is easy and fun to prepare, making it a great recipe to cook with kids. They’ll love getting involved in the layering and crumbling, and you’ll all enjoy the cozy, homey result.
Serve your Caramelized Apple & Cinnamon Crumble on its own or with a dollop of coconut yogurt or a splash of almond milk. Whether it’s a weekend treat or a midweek delight, this nourishing dessert proves that indulgence and health can go hand in hand.
