In a large bowl, combine diced apples, pear, tapioca, lemon juice, spices, salt, chia seeds and vanilla. Toss until evenly coated.

In a small bowl, whisk maple syrup and melted coconut oil. Pour over dry ingredients and mix until crumbly.

Sprinkle extra buckwheat groats over the top, then drizzle tahini lightly across the crumble.
