Healthier than your average Apple Pie
I grew up making apple pie with my mom, using my grandmother’s recipe. After I went gluten-free, I struggled to find a good pie crust recipe. Gluten free pastry is hard to work with.
This recipe uses the same flavours as my grandmother’s apple pie, but uses a store-bought gluten-free crust, and a crumble topping. It also uses a healthier oil and more nutrient-dense flour than my childhood pie recipe. It’s way faster to make, and my friend, LouAnne, says it’s the best pie she has ever tasted.

1 Frozen, Store-Bought Pie Crust:
I use Wholly Gluten Free pie crusts. They come frozen at my local organic food store, Fine Fettle.
Pie Filling:
6 apples, peeled and chopped
1/3 cup oat flour
¼ cup white sugar
¾ tsp cinnamon
Dash of allspice
Dash of salt
Mix dry ingredients together and toss with apple slices. Pour mixture into pie crust.
Crumble Topping:
½ cup oat flour
½ cup brown sugar
¾ tsp cinnamon
Dash of allspice
½ tsp salt
¼ cup melted coconut oil
Assemble:
Spread mixture evenly over top of apples that are in pie crust.
Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for around 40 minutes or until apples are soft.
