Delicious Apple Crisp - Oat and Gluten Free

5.0 (1 reviews)

Apple crisp is a delicious side dish (or dessert!) and it is lighter than traditional apple kugels, due to only having a crispy crumble on top, and only apples on the bottom. It is delicious served warm on Friday night, or at room temperature, at Seuda Shlishis.

This recipe for apple crisp is gluten free and oat free, and can be served on Pesach! The crumb is so tasty, and the chopped walnuts give it a perfect crunch. You will wonder if it’s actually chometz!

Baking with a glass to table pie plate allows the apple crisp to bake evenly, and get crispy on the top, while keeping the apple layer moist. If you don’t have one, you can use any nine inch round pan.

Make sure to use good quality apples in this recipe! If the apples are bland, the apple crisp will be bland too.

Directions

Prepare the Crumb Topping

  1. Mix the flour, sugar, walnuts, ground almonds and cinnamon.

  2. Add the oil slowly.

  3. If it’s too dry, slowly add a drop more oil. It should be a crumbly consistency, but not mushy.

Prepare the Apple Layer

  1. Optionally peel the apples if you’d like. We do not peel the apples as the peel gets soft and is not noticeable in the baked apple crisp.

  2. Core the apples.

  3. Slice them thinly in a food processor.

  4. Mix with lemon juice and cinnamon.

Make the Apple Crisp

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. Place the apple mixture into the glass pie pan or a nine-inch round.

  3. Crumble the crumb mixture on top of the apples.

  4. Bake on 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes.

  5. The apple crisp should appear light brownish on the top, and the apples should be bubbly and soft on the bottom.

Notes:
I was delighted to find a mini seven-inch glass pie pan! I started making this recipe in this smaller pan for my gluten-sensitive daughter. I use only two apples, and adjust the other ingredients accordingly (about 1/3 of the recipe).
