Instead of spending all your time chopping, spiralize those apples for a quick and healthy Spiralized Apple Crumble. With curly apple noodles and a crispy crumble layer this recipe will be a huge dessert hit!I’ll admit that when I came up with this recipe I really thought that spiralizing the apples was kind of gimmicky. It spiced up boring old apple crumble by infusing a little trendiness into it. Little did I know that I’d actually be creating a massive life hack.

Spiralizing is all the rage these days. It get it, low carb noodles?! Count me in. Okay not actually, I like pasta too much and I totally use my spiralizer more for making curly fries than anything else, but basically if you aren’t spiralizing- who are you?! So to keep up with what’s “so hot right now”, I decided to spiralize my apples in apple crumble just to see what would happen. Well the sky didn’t come crashing down but I did cut my crumble-making time in half.

Why Make A Spiralized Apple Crumble?!

Crumble is one of those desserts that’s amazing but really is the lazy girls guide to potlucks. It’s guaranteed to be a hit, so easy to make and requires very few ingredients. But for a simple dessert, the last thing you want to do is spend half your day peeling and chopping apples.

This spiralized apple crumble is literally the answer to all of your prayers (because I know you’re all up at night praying that someone develops a crumble hack…). I made the executive decision that peeling is unnecessary because peels are delicious and full of fiber and there’s really no reason they shouldn’t be.

Then when it comes to chopping, you won’t be needing to deal with that anymore because you can spiralize an apple in full! It takes about 20-30 seconds per apple to spiralize, which means you now have more time for crumble eating instead of crumble baking.

Is this a Healthy Apple Crumble?

You betcha! (<–can you tell my husband is Minnesotan?!). Not only is this apple crumble spiralized, but it’s also made with healthier ingredients. Here are the healthy swaps I made:

  • Coconut sugar for brown sugar
  • Almond Meal in place of white flour
  • Coconut oil instead of butter

The hardest part of the recipe is the torture of how delicious your house will smell while it’s baking when all you really want to do is dig right in. But 40 minutes later you grab that fork, some delicious vanilla bean ice cream and go to town. You won’t regret it!

  1. Hello!

    This looks so yummy and isn’t chopping the worst part about apple crisp? This would solve it!
    Does your spiralizer have three blades or four? The amazon link goes to an option for either three or four blades, so I wanted to comment & find out!

    Thanks!

  2. Oh my gosh this made me crack up. “This crumble keeps me humble” I totally got caught laughing at my computer screen in my office. HA, oops. Whatevs, long hurr don’t curr.
    I am SO glad I finally got a spiralizer. I had the best time last weekend testing out an apple, and then a sweet potato. The CURLS I got from the potato were unreal. Like a freaking slinky. WAY too fun.

    1. “Long hurr, don’t curr” I’m literally LOLing in a coffee shop right now. People are staring. I’m okay with it.

      Also welcome to the deep dark world of the spiralizer 😉

  3. Even though you say this is totally just a gimmick, I think it’s genius!! I agree with you on the pasta and curly fries?? but I do like to throw vegetable noodles into my meals just to get more veggies. It’s a life changer!

  4. Any when you spiralize, you can’t help but smile and be happy even if your in a bad mood 😛 Just like laughing!
    My all time favorite thing to spiralize is raw beets. Can’t ever have enough!

  5. Wow, never thought to use my spiralizer for apples before – what a great idea. The core must come out really slick in the center, too. I’ve got to try this! you’ve opened up a whole new world of possibilities!

  6. Such a solid idea. I use my spiralizer for mostly savory things, but I’ve been looking for a recipe to use in a sweet dish. This is perfect and just in time for Thanksgiving!

    1. Right?! I got stuck in a savory rut so it was so fun to change it up and share a sweet spiralized recipe!

  7. Wow this sounds so good and easy! Thank you I’m making this for Thanksgiving dinner. Loving your Blogs and your Youtube was great! Oh the story about your temporary dog, we got a dog (not my idea, daughter & husband) almost 5 years ago, she went off to college and now in Grad school 5 more years. So she moved out and guess who’s dog it is? lol I don’t know what I would do without her, shes my buddy. Enjoy him they truly become a part of your family.

    1. He’s quickly become my best friend. I’m out of town right now and I miss him with everything! It’s going to be impossible to say goodbye but fortunately he’s my best friend’s dog so I’ll see him frequently. But we’ll also probably get our own puppy too 🙂 Thanks so much, Arlene! So happy you’ll be enjoying this for Thanksgiving.

  8. It looks super cool, apple crumble is delicious. I sometimes eat it as a breakfast, can’t help it, I need something sweet in the morning. Don’t have a spiralizer, but I’ll try this one with sliced apples.
