Ingredients

4 to 5 medium tart green apples 4 cups cored and sliced
2 Tablespoons healthy soy-free margarine I use Earth Balance Soy-Free or coconut oil, melted
1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Crisp Topping:
1 cup gluten-free quick oats
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons soy-free margarine Earth Balance or coconut oil, melted
¼ cup pure maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
Lightly oil a 9x9-inch square baking dish and set aside
Prepare the filling:
Halve the apples, core them, and slice thinly. You should have about 4 cups. I don't peel the apples since the peel adds fiber, but you can peel your apples first if you like
Place the apples in a large bowl and toss with the cinnamon and nutmeg until thoroughly coated. Add maple syrup and melted margarine or coconut oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, and nutmeg and mix to coat the apples thoroughly.
Spread the apple mixture in the bottom of the prepared dish and set aside
Prepare the crisp topping:
I a medium bowl, toss the gluten-free quick oats with cinnamon and salt
Add melted margarine or coconut oil and maple syrup and mix well. Sprinkle oats evenly over the top of the apples
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the apples are soft. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!
