Apple Crisp (Gluten & Dairy Free)
This apple crisp is bursting with flavor. It's so good you'd never know it's gluten free, dairy free, and refined sugar free. The apples are seasoned with cinnamon, nutmeg, and fresh ginger. It's sweetened with maple syrup, and the pecans in the crumble top add the perfect crunch. This is the perfect dessert to whip up on a cool fall day.
Ingredients
Filling
- 6-7 medium apples (I use the apples off of our tree, but granny smith are great for apple crisp)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup or coconut sugar
- juice from 1 lemon
- 1-2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ginger freshly grated
Crisp
- 1 cup organic gluten free rolled oats
- 1/3 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or coconut sugar I use a mix of both
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8x10 baking dish .
- Peel, core, and slice the apples and place them in a bowl
- Add the lemon juice and maple syrup to the apples and stir to combine. Then add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine
- Pour the apple mixture into a prepared baking dish and set aside.
- In another bowl add the oats, almond flour, pecans, and salt and stir. Then mix in the remaining ingredients and stir until crumbly. Spread the crumble mixture over the apples.
- Cover the baking dish and bake for 25 mins. Then uncover and bake an additional 20 mins or until the topping browns. Serve with coconut whipped topping or coconut yogurt if dairy free. Otherwise it is delicious with real whipped topping.
- * If food intolerances aren't an issue, the almond flour can be replaced with all purpose flour and the coconut oil can be replaced with butter.
