Ingredients
6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1.5 cups certified gluten-free rolled oats
1 cup almond flour
0.75 cup packed brown sugar
0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp sugar (for apples)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into uniform half-inch thick pieces.
Toss sliced apples with lemon juice and a dash of sugar in a large bowl.
Transfer apples into a greased nine-inch baking dish.
Combine gluten-free oats, almond flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using a pastry cutter until coarse crumbs form.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apple layer.
Bake for 40 minutes until the filling is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
Notes
Ensure all oat packaging is certified gluten-free to avoid cross-contamination. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave to regain crispness.
