About this recipe
Gluten-Free Apple Crisp is super easy to make!! It takes a few ingredients and takes less time to prepare than many desserts.
This amazing recipe is made with a cinnamon-spiced apple filling and a brown sugar oat topping. I used Graham Smith apples and tossed them with granulated sugar, drops of fresh lemon juice, and cinnamon.
The topping is made with butter, gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, and oats. The combination between the warm and tender apples, with the oat topping is delicious!!
Is best to serve the dessert with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream. But is optional!

Ingredients
- Apples: fresh green apples, peeled and chopped. I prefer Granny Smith apples.
- Oats: gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats.
- Flour: gluten-free all-purpose flour and almond flour. I used a store-bought almond flour but you can use a homemade one.
- Sugar: brown sugar for the crumble and white granulated sugar for the apples.
- Butter: cold chopped unsalted butter.
- Lemon: drops of fresh lemon juice.
- Cinnamon: ground cinnamon (optional).
- Almonds: chopped and toasted almonds (optional).
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
In a medium bowl place chopped peeled apples, granulated sugar, 3/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, and lemon juice. If you like very sweet desserts you can add another tablespoon of sugar.
Mix everything and transfer to prepared baking pan. I used an 8´´ square pan.
In another bowl mix brown sugar, oats, gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, and remaining cinnamon.
Add the diced cold butter into the mixture and rub it with your fingertips until crumb forms.
Place the mixture in the baking pan over the apples and sprinkle with chopped almonds (optional).
Bake for 40/50 minutes or until golden brown and the apples are bubbling.
Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream.
Storing
Store the dessert in the fridge cover for 3 days. I don’t recommend to freeze it, it’s not the same.
Variation
You can replace the gluten-free all-purpose flour with another gluten-free flour, you can explore different combinations. The lemon can be replaced with orange juice. You can sprinkle the apple crisp with walnuts or any dried fruit.
