- Mix all ingredients for the crumble topping in a separate bowl with a fork. Spread the topping over the apple filling.
- Bake the crumble in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the top is golden.

Notes
9.3g net carbs per serving. Makes 10 servings of around 100g each.
I did not peel the apples or the chayote squash. If you prefer, feel free to peel both.
12.6g net carbs per serving if you substitute the chayote squash for 3 more Granny Smith apples weighing 390g after coring.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Suitable for freezing (3 months).
