Instructions

1.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2.
In a large bowl, combine sliced apples, 1/2 cup flour, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss to coat and spread in a 9-inch baking dish.
3.
In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup flour, rolled oats, and 1/2 cup brown sugar for the crumble topping.
4.
Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apple mixture.
6.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
7.
While the crumble is baking, prepare the yogurt. Scrape seeds from 1/2 vanilla bean into yogurt and mix well.
8.
Let the crumble cool slightly before serving. Top each serving with a dollop of vanilla bean yogurt and a slice of (or pieces of) chocolate peanut butter protein bar on the side.

Chef's Tips

For a crispier topping, add a handful of chopped nuts to the crumble mixture.

If the crumble topping starts to brown too quickly, cover the baking dish with foil for the last 10 minutes of baking.

The apple crumble can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving.

You can also use other fruits like pears or berries in place of the apples.

Feel free to warm the chocolate peanut butter protein bar slightly to enhance its chewy texture and meltiness for an even more decadent dessert pairing!
