Notes
Serving: add ice cream, yogurt, or cold milk to your apple crumble.
Swap and Sub: Both tahini and almond butter can easily be substituted with peanut butter if that’s what you have on hand or prefer.
Go Low Glycemic: If you’re monitoring your sugar intake, you can replace the date sugar and syrup with low glycemic sweeteners, such as erythritol.
Plant Milk Varieties: While this recipe suggests oat milk, any plant milk of your choice will do the trick — almond, soy, cashew, or rice milk, they’re all good options.
A Hint of Ginger: For those who enjoy a bit of warmth and zing, adding some ground ginger to the mix can elevate the flavors.
Sweetness Level: Remember, the sweetness required truly depends on the natural sweetness or tartness of your apples. If you’re working with particularly sour apples, like I was, don’t hesitate to be generous with the sweeteners to strike the right balance.
