¼ cup coconut butter, softened
1½ tablespoons maple syrup
1 cup rolled oats
¼ cup coconut sugar

5 cups peeled, cored, and thinly sliced apples
4 tablespoons raisins
1½ tablespoons coconut sugar
What you do:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-inch glass baking dish.
- For the topping, in a mixing bowl, combine coconut butter and maple syrup and stir well. Add oats, coconut sugar, oat flour, and salt, and mix until crumbly.
- For the filling, in a large bowl, whisk maple syrup and arrowroot. Add water, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, and whisk again. Stir in sliced apples and raisins, and toss to coat.
- Sprinkle coconut sugar into bottom of baking dish. Distribute apple filling in baking dish, pouring juices over top. Add topping, distributing evenly over apples.
