Ingredients:
For the crust
- 1½ cups Classic Granola (try it with Gluten Free Honey Nut Granola or Original Coconola too!)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- ¼ tsp salt
For the filling
- 5 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- ½ cup pecans, roughly chopped
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp nutmeg
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
For the topping
- ¾ cup Classic Granola (try it with Gluten Free Honey Nut Granola or Original Coconola too!)
- 2 tbsp chopped pecans
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp melted butter
Instructions:
- Make the crust: Preheat oven to 350°F. Pulse Classic Granola in a food processor until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Mix granola crumbs with flour, brown sugar, melted butter, maple syrup, and salt until combined.
- Press firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.
- Make the filling: Toss apples with pecans, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt.
- Spoon the apple mixture into the crust, arranging the apples evenly.
- Make the topping: Mix Classic Granola, pecans, brown sugar, and melted butter. Sprinkle evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 40–50 minutes, until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown. If the topping starts browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil.
- Let cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Enjoy your pie!
