Using a food processor, combine almond flour, sweet sorghum flour, rice flour, and coconut sugar. Add butter and pulse until blended, the butter should be about the size of a small pea. Add water one tablespoon at a time until the dough is moist and should stick together if you pinch it. I used three tablespoons

Using a large bowl toss apples with lemon juice, cinnamon and tapioca/arrowroot. In that order.

Fan the apples in a circular pattern, this way you can fit them all in. If you are using raisins, sprinkle them after the first layer of apples. You should have 2 layers of fanned apples. Pour maple caramel sauce evenly over the apples
