- 1 ½ Cups Gluten Free Flour (I used 1 Cup King Arthur Brand & ½ Cup Cassava Flour)
- ½ Cup Gluten Free Rolled Oats
- ½ teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- ¾ Cup Coconut Sugar
- 1/3 Cup Monk Fruit Sugar

- ½ teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- ¾ Cup + 2 TBSP Vegan Butter (or Ghee) Melted

- 7 Apples or 3 lbs. Organic Apples – I did mix of Honeycrisp and Granny Smith – Peeled/Cored/Sliced into 1/4” Thick Pieces
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/3 Cup + 2 TBSP Coconut Sugar
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease 13X9 baking dish (I used stoneware) and coated with vegan butter.
- For crumb topping, add flour, oats, Xanthan gum, both sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Whisk together until smooth and no lumps.
- Add vanilla & butter to mixture, mixing until combined. Add Water 1 TBSP at a time – may not need all 4 depending on thickness. You want texture to be formed and not too loose. Refrigerate while preparing apple mixture.
- In large bowl, add apples, cinnamon and sugar. Mix until completely combined. Pour into bottom of pan spreading out evenly.
- Add crumbs to top of apples – breaking apart and evenly distributing – crumble with hands. Press down lightly so firmly touching the apples.
