Gluten Free Apple Crumble
$9.38 Recipe/$1.17 Serving
Gluten Free Apple Crumble is so easy to make and is the perfect fall dessert. This recipe would be great for beginners and is naturally sweetened! Perfect for serving to guests or parties but easy enough to make on weeknights or weekends.
Peel and slice the apples to an even thickness and squeeze lemon juice over top. Stir well.
Add the apples to a large bowl along with the rest of the cinnamon sliced apple ingredients listed. Stir well.
Add the apples to a large casserole dish (you may decide to spray it with avocado oil first).
Add all the gluten free crumble ingredients to the bowl and stir well.
Spoon the crumble ingredients over the sliced apples and make sure the apples are covered evenly.
Bake the apple crumble at 350F for 40-45 minutes.
Once you take the apple crumble from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Notes
Top tips
Try to slice the apples the same thickness so they will cook evenly. To ensure that all the apples cook through and are soft and tender, try to slice the apples the same thickness. This is why I love the mandonline, as it easily slices everything the same thickness.
Use baking apples to maintain their texture. Using baking apples helps to ensure they have texture and a bite to the apples even after cooking. If you don’t use baking apples, the apples can turn into mush (like applesauce) and the texture will be different. The end result will still be very tasty but not the same texture.
Add lemon juice so the apples don’t brown as you are slicing them. Squeeze lemon juice over the lemons, then continue to stir them together as you slice more and more. The lemon juice helps to keep the apples from oxidizing and turning brown when exposed to air.
Best served hot, warm or cold the day you make it. The crumble topping is the best the day you make it. It’s still delicious the next day but has the absolute best texture the day it’s made so if you are serving it to company/guests, make the apple crisp the day of.
How to know when the apple crisp is doneThere are two things I check on to know if the apple crisp is done.
The topping is a golden brown but not burned
The apples are bubbling at the edges (this indicates they are likely cooked through)
