GLUTEN-FREE OAT-FREE APPLE CRISP

Gluten-Free Oat-Free Apple Crisp image

I perfected the gluten-free and oat-free apple crisp. (Even gluten-free oats cause a reaction for me.) It is crunchy and buttery. Many gluten-free flours are not good for crunch, so I split it with cornstarch!

Ingredients

6 medium apples - peeled, cored, and sliced
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons cornstarch
½ cup apple juice
¾ cup light brown sugar
½ cup cold butter
⅔ cup gluten-free all purpose baking flour
⅔ cup cornstarch

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
Place apples in a large mixing bowl and toss with cinnamon and 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Pour apple juice over apples.
Combine brown sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Blend in flour and 2/3 cup cornstarch using 2 forks or a pastry blender until butter mixture is crumbly; sprinkle evenly over apples.
Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and crust is golden, 40 to 50 minutes.
