The crumble topping is made with almond flour, pecans, walnuts, and coconut oil, which gives it a nutty and crunchy texture. This crisp is easy to make and can be served warm or cold.

The apple crisp is a classic American dessert that dates back to the early 1900s. It is believed to have originated in New England, where apples were plentiful and often used in desserts. The first apple crisps were made with a simple mixture of apples, sugar, and flour. Over time, the recipe evolved to include other ingredients, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter. Today, there are many different variations of apple crisp, but the basic ingredients remain the same.
