### **Ingredients**
- 2 cups of Chayote squash, peeled and diced (used as a low-carb substitute for apples)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup low-carb sweetener (like erythritol)
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

### **Cooking Method**
1. **Preheat Oven**: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. **Prepare Filling**: In a mixing bowl, combine the chayote squash with lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss well to ensure that the squash is evenly coated.
3. **Make Crumble Topping**: In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, chopped pecans, shredded coconut, low-carb sweetener, melted butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and form a crumbly texture.
4. **Assemble**: In a baking dish, layer the chayote squash filling, then evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the mixture.
5. **Bake**: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
6. **Cool and Serve**: Allow the crumble to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of keto-friendly ice cream.
