Make it step by step
- For the Crust:
- Put the walnuts in a food processor and process them until a flour-like consistency is achieved.
- Add the maple syrup, coconut oil, and egg into the food processor. And then, continue processing until a dough is formed.
- If the dough comes out too sticky, freeze it for 10 minutes.
- Spread the dough in a baking pan. Be sure every side is evenly covered. Set aside and place in the fridge.
- For the Filling:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Fill a large bowl with lukewarm water. Squeeze half of the lemon into the water.
- Wash and remove the core of the apple one at a time. Slice them thinly. If possible, use a mandolin slicer. Drop the apple slices in the lemon water.
- After all the apples have been sliced, submerge them in boiling water for 10 seconds.
- Next, arrange the apples in the crust and to form roses. Fill the pan with the rest of the apple slices until full.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, evaporated milk, egg yolks, and coconut nectar syrup. After which, pour the mixture into the apple slices.
- Bake for 35 minutes until the surface starts to brown.
- Allow to cool down before refrigerating for an hour.
- Serve with maple flakes on top.
