Why this pairing works
The honey’s floral notes echo the lavender buds, amplifying the crisp’s autumnal apple flavors. A touch of lavender in the topping adds an unexpected twist that’s inviting and comforting in cooler weather.
Serves 6 Prep 15 min Cook 40 min
Ingredients
- 5 cups peeled and sliced tart apples, such as Granny Smith, about 5 medium apples
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Culinary Lavender Buds, finely chopped

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, toss apple slices with lemon juice, 1 tablespoon flour, cinnamon, and salt. Spread apples evenly in a greased 8-inch baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, mix remaining 1 tablespoon flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, chopped culinary lavender buds, and softened butter. Use your fingers or a fork to combine until crumbly.
