I'm not sure I can fully relate how much I love this recipe, how much my family loves this recipe, how much other friends have loved this recipe. It's a delicious, feel-good sort of recipe. The topping is a perfect mixture of crisp and moist. You'll love it! I've also made this with a low sugar option topping, which I've included at the bottom. However, I prefer to just add extra apples, make it in a larger pan, and spread out the topping mix here rather than using a low-sugar option. Enjoy!

Heat oven to 350F oven. Have an 8 x 8 pan or equivalent ready (you don't need to butter the pan) OR 9 x 13 pan if you want to use 8 apples and have less topping overall.
Peel and thinly slice OR dice:.JPG)
Cut in with a pastry cutter: (or your fingers, but be sure not to overmix! You want it crumbly and not smoothed together or it won't be a proper crispy/crumbly topping)

This low sugar topping is not quite as crumbly, but still makes for a delicious taste on top of the apples. Enjoy!

I enjoy dicing my apples, but slicing works well, too!
Mix together:
¾
cup large oats (use gluten-free oats for Celiac or if you're very sensitive to wheat!)
¾
cup brown sugar
1
tsp cinnamon
¾ tsp nutmeg (optional)
Cut in with a pastry cutter: (or your fingers, but be sure not to overmix! You want it crumbly and not smoothed together or it won't be a proper crispy/crumbly topping)
½
cup butter
This is how I like the topping to look - crumbly, but not overmixed
Sprinkle the mixture over the
apples.
Ready for baking!
Bake 35-40 minutes, or until apples are
soft and topping is crispy and browned. (9 x 13 pans will need more like 45-50 minutes).
Fresh from the oven!
Alternative low sugar topping:

¾ cup gluten-free large oats
¼ cup cornstarch OR Kristin's gluten-free flour mix

This low sugar topping is not quite as crumbly, but still makes for a delicious taste on top of the apples. Enjoy!
