A warm and delicious fruit crisp could be just what you need for one of those surprisingly chilly spring nights. This Salted Caramel Apple Crisp is a healthy treat that will fill your home with the fragrant scent of spices.
Apples are tasty sweet and tart fruit that’s available all year round. However, you can switch them out with blueberries or cherries if you prefer, and the fruit will still taste absolutely amazing with the protein-rich topping.
Not only do you get the benefits of fiber and vitamins from fruit; there are also a couple of secret ingredients that will boost the nutrient profile of the crumble topping. Tiger nuts are rich with fiber, potassium, and vitamins C and E, so it’s an excellent, AIP alternative that provides a rich texture and extra flavor. And it’s mixed with my new Salted Caramel Paleo Protein, which is so delicious, and so good for your digestion and overall health. It has all of the essential amino acids your body can’t produce on its own and 20 grams of paleo protein. Did I mention it makes the whole kitchen smell like mapley, caramel goodness!?
Don’t wait for fall to put this Salted Caramel Apple Crisp in the oven. It’s perfect any time of the year.
