break in the fog breeds creativity - Primal style -Salted Carmel Apple Crisp

Good gravy the circumstances of my life are a cluster right now.  But I'm optimistic. It's just circumstances. 
My house is back on the market as a result of the potential buyer's backing out.  My life has just changed trajectory - again. There's a huge water main break -- but turns out it's on the City's side of things!  Woohoo!  Now I won't have to spend $10K, I don't have, to fix it!  To celebrate a break in the "fog" and turn of events of my life into the black, I was inspired to create!  My paints and fabrics being stowed away for the move, I had food as my palette and canvas.  I made paleo banana muffins with shredded carrots and pecans (wow, pecans are the dessert of the nut world).  Inspired by their smell, I chopped up my last Gala apple and made this heavenly concoction.  I must admit, the stricter paleo you are, the less of a sweet tooth you have.  I don't even care for chocolate much anymore.  I don't think I've done well on this challenge.  But I've held it, reasonably, together considering my circumstances.  Being a part of this blogosphere helps me focus.  I will go out with a bang and gain some ground, so watch out Yaz and Ashley. You guys are kicking butt.  Can I have your old clothes when yours are too large!  Yes! 

I kicked the day off with a planned crock pot lemon chicken.  I added some roasted sweet potatoes at supper time.  Here's the apple crisp with caramel dressing I whipped up on the fly.  This is my first go so it could use some tweaks.  If you try it, let me know what to add more/less of. 

1 Gala apple - sliced in thin strips/wafers

Crumble topping
1 tsp melted coconut oil
1/3 cup Almond Meal/Flour (is there such a thing as pecan flour?  I'd try that in a heartbeat)
1/2 tsp apply pie spice (use cinnamon to sub)
3 chopped dates

Chop above ingredients in food processor or mini chopper

Melt coconut oil in ramekin in microwave and then mix in a bowl with other ingredients, except apples

Place apples in ramekin you just melted the coconut oil in
Add crumble topping
Bake 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until apples are fragrant

Salted Carmel topping

1/2 cup of coconut cream
1 hot date (microwave 30 seconds)
dash of vanilla
1/8 tsp or less - melted bacon fat
Mix in food processor or whip by hand (the texture of cream thinned out in processor - I put in freezer)
