    Apple crisps definitely make my 'top three' for favorite desserts.

    Raw Cinnamon Apple Crumble

    The biggest complaint I have with making them, is waiting! The recipe typically requires 30-45 to bake, and, while it is totally worth it, some nights I haven't planned my menu as well and want immediate sweet tooth satisfaction!

    Enter the raw version of the fruity confection.

    Raw Cinnamon Apple Crumble 2

    Though it takes a bit of time for the apples to soak, this can be done while you make the delicious, sweet crumble topping.

    Topped with a bit of coconut whipped cream, this makes a great dessert in a pinch!

    Please enjoy the following video to show you just how to make it.

      I used to make something similar to this back in college since all I had was a microwave (not much baking going on!). It's nice to have a version I can follow and print out, thanks!

      What a great recipe! I was going to make another raw cobbler for my Thanksgiving dinner contribution but came across this one and thought it sounded yummier. AND IT IS!! I didn't have pumpkin (I think I'm the only person in the world who doesn't like pumpkin) or chia seeds but I did toss in a tsp of flax seeds and it's fine. And I love the video. That truly helps people like me who struggle in the kitchen. 😀 Happy Thanksgiving!!

      Made this tonight - it was lovely! Used dried cranberries instead of dates as didn't have any, worked fine. Even OH (usually suspicious of healthy stuff) liked it! Thank you! 🙂 Photo on my instagram - feel free to follow @MistyWedge
