GF/DF Apple crisp

After picking 14 pounds of apples this weekend, I'm looking for things to do with all these apples (besides eating them of course!) This gluten free and dairy free dessert will be one you should enjoy at some point this fall!

First I peeled and quartered apples (I only used 4 but they were super huge!!) Then I took each quarter, cut it in half, and thinly sliced each half. I did enough apples to get 8 cups. While chopping I made sure to put a little lemon juice on the apples to keep them from getting brown while I was working.


Then I added 1/4 C white sugar and 2 Tbsp cinnamon. Stirred it up until the apples were evenly coated. Spray a 9x13 glass dish with safe cooking spray and fill it with the apple mixture.


In a different bowl (or I rinsed out the apple one after transferring it) mix together 2 C old fashioned oats (I don't use specifically GF ones since Lucy isn't severely allergic to wheat like she is with peanuts & milk but use what is best for your situation) with 1/3 C margarine (we use this), 1/2 C brown sugar, 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp vanilla. I like to mix it with my hands to get the margarine all crumbly!


Spread the oat mixture evenly over the apples. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly.


Enjoy!!
