INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place large pan over medium heat.  Add 1 tsp. coconut oil and toss in apples, cinnamon, lemon juice, and nutmeg. Cook for 10 minutes, constantly stirring with a spatula. Remove from heat and toss apple mixture with maple syrup and vanilla extract.

Grease pie tin with coconut oil spray.  In a bowl, combine all dry ingredients for crust and stir well.  Add cold coconut oil and press in with a fork until mixture is crumbly, but still dry. Add 3 Tbsp. cold water and combine until mixture forms a ball. If mixture is too dry to form a ball, add 1 Tbsp. more water at a time. Firmly press mixture down into the greased pie tin. Bake for 15 minutes.

Add apple mixture to cooked crust.

Bake pie for an additional 15 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
