Crispy and Sweet

  

One of my favorite desserts as a child was my mom's apple crisp. This dish was like a dream, crispy and cinnamonie on top and soft, and slightly tart beneath. This is a super easy alternative to apple pie and perfectly pairs with your favorite soy, almond, or coconut ice cream.

Portuguese Apple Crisp

• 4 cups sliced peeled granny smith apples
   
• 2/3 cup dark brown sugar
   
• 1/2 cup GF flour (I used rice flour)
   
• 1/2 cup GF oats (I use Bob'd Red Mill)
   
• 2/3 teaspoon cinnamon
   
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
   

1/3 cup softened Earth Balance Margarine (or butter if you can, or like)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease an 8x8x2 pan and place granny smith apple slices in the bottom of the pan. Mix the remaining ingredients together and sprinkle evenly over the top of the apples. Bake for 30 minutes or until the top is golden and apples are sizzling.
