Autumn is much too quickly giving way to colder temperatures as winter moves into the Midwest. The cooler temps bring certain flavors and aromas to mind such as hot cocoa, pumpkin spice (you KNOW you crave it!), cinnamon and many more that seem to go perfectly with this time of year. One of the things I absolutely love is warm, sweet with a hint of tart, mouth-watering apple crisp. I've played around with and developed this simple and tasty recipe.
This will be my last blog post until December. Next week, with the Thanksgiving holiday, I will be taking time off to simply be with family, as I am sure most of you will be doing. This past Thursday our Western Iowa Celiac & Gluten Free Living group celebrated early with a wonderful "Friendsgiving". Everyone brought a gluten free dish to share and it was so much fun!
Ingredients:
3 medium or 4 small apples, thinly sliced (I used 4 small - 2 Honeycrisp and 2 Granny Smith)
2/3 C packed brown sugar
1/3 C butter, softened
1 C gluten free granola (I used a nut blend granola)
1/2 C gluten free all purpose flour blend (measures cup for cup like regular flour)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp cardamom
1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a 9 x 11 inch lightly greased baking dish layer apple slices to cover the entire bottom of dish.
In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients using a pastry blender, spoon or your hands until mixture is crumbly.
Sprinkle mixture evenly on top of apple slices. Be sure to cover apples entirely.
Bake on center rack between 30 and 35 minutes until apples are tender. Serve warm with your favorite ice cream or whipped topping.
