    Baked Apple Crisp (Vegan and Gluten Free)

    Vegan Baked Apple Crisp (gluten free). This caramel-y autumn crisp is both delectably intoxicating and beyond heavenly. Simple ingredients and insanely delicious. #vegan #applecrisp #caramel #fallrecipe

    This post is dedicated to my fianc? and his love for apples!

    If you know Terry, you know he eats an apple a day. During apple season though, he can get down with 2-3 apples per day. He looks forward to apple season all year and says there is nothing better than biting into a fresh apple that didn’t travel hundreds of miles to end up in a store and then in our fridge.

    That’s right, we drive 40 minutes to an adorable apple orchard farm in Wisconsin every other weekend during apple season, to replenish his desire. It’s pretty cute, to be honest. And we don’t buy one bag, oh no. We fill up 3-4 bags each time with different varieties. He has his favorites and I have mine which are complete opposite of his. He likes sour and super crunchy. I like sweet and not so hard to bite into because it hurts my teeth. There are also baking apples which is what inspired today’s delicious Baked Apple Crisp recipe.

    This caramel-y autumn crisp is both delectably intoxicating and beyond heavenly.

    The ingredients are so simple, it’s silly. There is no better way to get some fall baking done! I imagine I will make this a lot over the next couple months. How perfect would this be for Thanksgiving too? The beautiful apples soften and have a party cinnamon, coconut sugar and sea salt. The coconut oil baked in with the sugar create this caramel-like texture that is just beyond.

    And the crisp topping! It’s better than you can imagine. Crumbly yet crunchy, it’s the perfect pair with baked apples to add that crumble-like dreamy texture with oats, almond flour, maple syrup and more cinnamon.

    This fall recipe is a treat and is meant to be shared. It’s pure delight alongside some ice cream or coconut cream too, which I highly, highly recommend!

    Description

    The BEST baked caramel-y apple crisp that is both vegan and gluten free.


    Ingredients

    Scale

    Apple Layer:

    6 organic apples (or about 6 cups; I used Swiss gourmet and sir prize)

    1/4 cup coconut sugar

    2 tablespoons tapioca starch (or arrowroot flour/cornstarch)

    2 teaspoons cinnamon

    1 teaspoon ginger

    1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

    2 tablespoons lemon juice

    2 tablespoons water

    Crisp Layer:

    3/4 cup oats

    3/4 cup almond flour (or any gluten free flour)

    1 cup crushed nuts or seeds (I used pecans)

    1/4 cup maple syrup

    1/4 cup melted coconut oil

    2 tablespoons coconut sugar

    1 teaspoon cinnamon

    1/4 teaspoon sea salt


    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×9 baking dish.

    Start by peeling the apples and slicing into thin slices. Add them to a mixing bowl and start mixing in the rest of the ingredients for the apple layer – the coconut sugar, tapioca starch, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, lemon juice and water. Make sure it is well combined and then transfer this apple mixture in the baking dish.

    In the same mixing bowl, start combining all ingredients for the crisp layer – the oats, almond flour, nuts, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, cinnamon and sea salt. Mix well.

    Begin crumbling the crisp mixture over the apples, trying to get a nice layer along the whole top, in all the nooks and crannies. This is best done with your hands!

    Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes or until bubbling.

    Remove from oven and let rest for 15-20 minutes. Serve with dairy-free ice cream or coconut cream.

    Enjoy!

    yes, being a mama will always be my #1 priority bu yes, being a mama will always be my #1 priority but in that I’ve sort of lost myself.

It’s my own doing too so don’t feel bad for me 😂 because it truly never felt right to leave my girl. We are very attached. Am I crazy? Yes, probably. But I’m okay with that. I realized my baby will be FINE if I go get a professional haircut or a pampering pedicure. Idk what changed but I think it’s the fact that I’m noticing more wrinkles and my hair could use a transformation. It’s greasy, heavy and lacking life. So I’m getting a haircut this week 💇‍♀️ I’m changing to a customized hair care system AND I’m scheduling a hydra facial because my skin desperately needs hydration. My skin, hair and nervous system need some serious self care haha.

Mamas, it may not feel right just yet to prioritize you but the time will come. Just follow your intuition 🖤🖤🖤 you deserve it.

what are you guys up to today?! I’m installing our new shower filter that I can’t wait to share about, running errands, cleaning, thinking about dinner, the usual Sunday things 💗💗💗
    HANDLE NAME CHANGE!! I’ve been wanting to do th HANDLE NAME CHANGE!!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while as a fresh start with all the changes to my “brand” in the last year. It feels right to just use my name 😀 (fun fact: I haven’t taken my hubbys last name yet because of business paperwork that I’m too lazy to figure out 😅 name changes are complicated) 

@theglowingfridge started out of my love for the plant based lifestyle but so much has changed in the last 9 years and I’ve been itching to update. Nothing else will change and my blog will still remain as is, if you still use my recipes and such. Love you all and thank you for supporting me through all these changes 🤍🤍🤍

When my blood sugar is on a nasty rollercoaster, I’m not the best mama that I know I should be for my girl. I’m more irritable and short. So I prioritize protein, healthy fats and carbs at each meal. This helps me feel balanced and provides energy to play and chase after her all day! I need all the fuel I can get.

    I don’t get ready everyday… But when I do I f I don’t get ready everyday…

But when I do I feel better, duh! And more confident. More productive. Happier in general. Of course I have super lazy days but I try to get myself together because I’m more likely to leave the house, you know mamas? I hate when people ask “why do you get ready if you’re home all day”.. 

I’m sharing different content like this because I feel like it and don’t want to be stuck in a box 😀

    I mean if you drink it everyday… It should be o I mean if you drink it everyday…

It should be organic, mold-free, tested for mycotoxins and taste delicious, etc. King coffee goes a step further with a therapeutic dose of reishi spores, the most powerful and potent part of reishi mushroom! Most other companies use the lucidum part of reishi, in case you’re wondering 👑
