Great base recipe! Good flavor, not too sweet. Walnuts provided great crunch. Served warm with freshly whipped creme and a sprinkle of nutmeg. I did change recipe a bit to reflect my style of cooking...in lieu of 2 c. flour, used 1 c. whole wheat flour, 1/2 c. unbleached flour and 1/2 c. oatmeal. Also added 2 c. + more apples (to make it deep dish style) and 2 tsp. apple pie spice in addition to the cinnamon to give a bit more spice. Made for a sorority meeting dessert and received many compliments! Those attending wanted the recipe to take home!

This recipe worked out quite well. Toasted single layer of almonds in 300 degree oven for 20 minutes before placing in food processor. When processing, continued to add oil (may need more than recipe states) until reached desired consistency. Also added a touch of sea salt which enhanced the almond flavor.
