• Wash hands thoroughly, according to CDC guidelines.
• Gather all ingredients.
  
• Heat oven to 350 F and spray an 8x8 baking dish with baking spray.

Make the fruit base

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine apricot slices, tapioca, sugar, stevia, lemon juice, almond extract, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly with wooden spoon or spatula. Sliced apricots should be coated with all ingredients. Taste, and add more sugar or stevia if more sweetness is needed.
  
• Pour the apricot mixture into a prepared bqking dish.

Make the crumble topping

• In another medium bowl, stir together the flours, brown Truvia, sugar, spices, and salt.
  
• Chop the cold butter into 4 or more pieces and add to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter, work the butter into the flour and spices, forming a clumpy streusel topping.

  *See note at the bottom of the recipe.
• Distribute the butter-flour streusel clumps evenly over the top of the fruit. Sprinkle with sliced or slivered almonds.

  Bake about 35 minutes.

  Start checking for doneness at 30 minutes. When the crumble is ready, the streusel will be golden and browned, and the fruit will bubble up, jammy on the sides of the baking dish.
  
• Remove from oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving with whipped topping or vanilla frozen dessert!
