Apple Butternut Crumble

ad-mania

We all love a dessert recipe that’s actually pretty healthy. This is one I like to make.

Here’s why I think you’ll really like this recipe too.

I made this often when I was 1,000% Paleo (for like five years straight… it’s a little weird when I think back on it sometimes). This recipe calls for apples, butternut squash, and almond flour. And for a while there, it felt luxurious. (You know how limited the Paleo diet is, right?) But on this side of things, it’s somehow still just a warm, tasty, perfectly fall thing to pull out of the oven.

Did you feel the same way?

After you have a chance to make this Apple Butternut Crumble, pop back over here and let us all know how it worked out for you. (It can’t be just me that still likes it after finally eating gluten after five years.)
