Description

Ingredients

• 4 large Granny Smith or other tart apples (5 if using smalled apples), peeled, cored and chopped into small pieces
• 1/3 cup Honey (or your favorite sweetener)
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed Lemon juice (or juice of one small lemon) plus its zest
• 2 teaspoons ground Cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground Nutmeg
• 1 cup gluten-free old-fashioned oats
• 1/2 cup Almond meal or all purpose gluten-free flour
• 1/2 cup sliced Almonds
• 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
• 6 tablespoons Butter, melted (salted or unsalted is fine)

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C). In a bowl, mix together the apples, honey, lemon juice and zest, cinnamon and nutmeg. Transfer to a square baking dish (like a 9x9). In the same bowl, mix together the oats, almond meal and sliced almonds, brown sugar and the melted butter. Evenly sprinkle the oat mixture on top of the apples. Gently mix the topping with the apple filling, if desired. I do the latter as I want chunky rather than goeey apples. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and nicely browned on top and the apples have softened. Serve warm with a little pouring (heavy) cream or if feeling indulgent, your favorite vanilla ice cream! For me, the cream or ice cream should not be optional so just do it!!!
