Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180C or 350F (Mark 4).
Step 2
Combine all the topping ingredients in a large bowl, including the optional dried figs or apricots, and stir until well mixed.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, combine all the ingredients for the apple filling except the sliced apples.
Step 4
Distribute the apple filling evenly on the bottom of an ovenproof dish, I prefer porcelain dishes and have found that no greasing is needed. Spoon the topping over the apples.
Step 5
A lot of cinnamon and maple syrup will be left in the bowl, so add ½ cup of water filtered water to the bowl and let the water soak it all up, then pour this mixture evenly over the pie.
Step 6
Finally, arrange the sliced apples on top, drizzle the last tbsp of maple syrup over it all and bake for 30-40 minutes.
