Description:

Whether enjoyed hot or cold, on its own or with a scoop of ice cream, this Gingered Apricot-Apple Crumble is a delightful dessert. For a twist, you can omit the apricots and create a classic apple crisp instead.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon honey
• 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
• 1/3 cup lemon juice
• 1/4 cup tart apples, peeled and sliced
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 8 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 3 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
• 3/4 cup pecans, chopped
• 1/2 cup maple syrup

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Fruit Mixture:
   In a large mixing bowl, combine honey, pure maple syrup, lemon juice, and sliced tart apples. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Topping:
   In another bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground cardamom until well combined. Stir this mixture into the apricot mixture prepared earlier.

3. Assemble the Crumble:
   Arrange the sliced apples evenly in an ungreased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking dish. Spoon the apricot mixture over the apples, ensuring it covers them evenly.

4. Prepare the Crumble Topping:
   In a separate bowl, combine the remaining all-purpose flour, quick-cooking oats, chopped pecans, and maple syrup. Sprinkle this topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.

5. Bake:
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the crumble for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the topping turns a golden brown and the fruit underneath is tender.

6. Serve:
   Once baked, remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, either plain or with a dollop of vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
