Author: Minimalist Baker

Recipe type: Dessert

Serves: 4-5

INGREDIENTS

• 8 small-medium apples, peeled, cored and chopped (a variety of both sweet and tart – about 6 cups worth)
• dash lemon juice
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 Tbsp cornstarch
• heaping 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• pinch of salt
• TOPPING
• heaping 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup gluten free flour blend*
• 1/2 cup gluten free old fashioned oats
• 1/4 cup almond meal
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• pinch salt
• 1/3 cup (little more than 1/2 one stick) non-dairy butter melted, such as Earth Balance

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and lightly grease a 9×9 baking dish.
2. Add apples to a large bowl or plastic bag and sprinkle with lemon juice. Toss to coat with granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt.
3. Transfer to baking dish and set aside.
4. Rinse and dry bowl and add brown sugar, flour, meal, oats, cinnamon and salt and stir. Add melted butter and mix until it resembles wet sand.
5. Sprinkle topping over the apples and bake until apples are soft and topping is golden brown (between 45 minutes to 1 hour).
6. Let rest 10-15 minutes before serving. Is great with vanilla ice cream – caramel sauce is also a lovely addition.

NOTES

* You can use an all purpose gluten free flour blend, such as Bob’s Red Mill Brand. Or, you can replicate the blend I used, which was made of 3/4 cup brown rice flour, 1/4 cup potato starch, 2 Tbsp tapioca flour, and 2 Tbsp sweet white rice flour. 
* There will be some liquid in the bottom of the pan, which you can either drain off or pour over the top of your ice cream.
