What do you get when you put apples and cinnamon together? A warming wintry classic, that’s what. Whether it’s an apple crumble cake or a freshly baked apple cake with streusel and gobs of whipped cream on top. But who says this treat should be confined to the winter? We’ve taken a family recipe and turned it into an airy-light, high-protein spoonful of goodness. The best part? You can keep the oven switched off! This apple crumble is sure to be your new no-bake favorite. We’ve used our Vegan Protein Cookies for the base and refined them with a fresh and zingy lemon cream, plus a heavenly-sweet apple compote. Our apple crumble cake recipe is quick to make and super moist, for a whiff of comfort any time of year.

    Repeat again to make layers.
