Gluten, Egg, and Dairy Free APPLE CRISP




 


I love apple crisp and my brother makes an AWESOME one!!  Of course he has no recipe, he just throws it together so after talking with him I came up with my own version that is Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Egg Free and Peanut Free.  I put apples and blueberries in mine but you can do apples, blueberries, peaches or blackberries.  This recipe makes a big batch (9X13 casserole dish).

  • 6 large apples pealed and sliced into wedges (I use Fuji apples)
  • 2 cups of fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons of any GF flour mix
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup melted butter or non-dairy butter (I use smart balance non-dairy)
  • 1/2 tablespoon of cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • If you have pumpkin pie spice you can use 3/4 tablespoon of that in place of cinnamon and nutmeg.  I have done this before and it tastes yummy!
In a large bowl mix apples and blueberries together.  Next, mix together sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Pour the sugar mixture over the apples and blueberries and mix well.  Be careful not to smash the blueberries I usually use frozen blueberries and leave them a little frozen so that they don't smash when I am mixing.

Spray a 9X13 baking dish with non-stick spray and then pour the apple/blueberry mixture into a 9X13 baking dish.  Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of GF flour over top of apple/blueberry mixture.  Take 1 cup of melted butter and pour over the top of the apples/blueberries.  Bake this in the oven at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

While that is cooking you will need the following:

  • 5 cups Gluten Free oats (you can use 6 cups for a thicker crust but more butter will be needed)
  • 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups of melted butter or non-dairy butter
Put GF oats in a large bowl.  Add sugar and cinnamon and stir well.  Add melted butter and mix well.  The oats should be completely covered by butter so occasionally I have to add more melted butter.  You want the oats to be wet and almost sticky.

After the apple mixture cooks for the 10-12 minutes bring it out of the oven and spread oat mixture on top.  Smooth out the oat mixture so it is completely covering the whole dish.  Return to the oven.

Bake for 20 minutes.  You want the top to start browning and you want the blueberries bubbling up on the sides.  Additional baking time may be needed.
