Ingredients

For the Filling:

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup dark brown sugar
  • ¼ cup bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons Gluten free flour blend I recommend Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • teaspoon salt
  • 2 ½ pounds apples approx. 5-6 medium size apples*

For the Topping:

  • ¾ cup Gluten free flour blend I recommend Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • cup gluten free old fashioned rolled oats
  • cup chopped pecans
  • ¾ cup brown sugar loosely packed
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted vegan butter cut into small cubes & softened at room temperature (1 stick)

Instructions

Make the filling:

  • Peel, core and slice the apples into ¼” slices. Sprinkle sliced apples immediately with a bit of lemon juice and toss until coated.
  • In a large bowl, mix together all the filling ingredients except for the apples.
  • Add the apples to the filling mixture and mix until well coated.
  • Make the Topping: 
  • Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl, except for the butter. Whisk together. 
  • Add the softened cubed butter and pinch it together with the dry ingredients until a softened crumbly mixture forms. It should look moist and not dry. Set aside.
  • Assembly: 
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease an 8” or 9” cast iron skillet or baking pan with oil or cooking spray.
  • Spread the apple filling mixture into the pan.
  • Sprinkle the apples with all of the oat topping.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and the apples are tender and cooked through.

Notes

  • My top 3 favorite apples to use for this apple crisp recipe are: Honeycrisp, Granny Smith and Fuji.
  • Storage: Store the pan covered in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. You can also freeze the crisp for up to 3 months. 
  • The best gluten free flour blend for this recipe is Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour.
