Gluten-Free Apple Pie Crumble Bars

With a buttery oat crust and a crumbly topping, these gluten-free apple pie crumble bars are a tasty take on apple pie.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup coconut sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
• 3 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions:

Set the oven to 350F 175C and heat it up

Put parchment paper around the edges of an 8x8-inch baking dish, leaving some overhang to make it easy to take off

Put the rolled oats, almond flour, coconut sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and mix them together

Add the melted coconut oil and mix it in well

Fill the baking dish with two-thirds of the oat mixture

Spread it out evenly in the bottom to make the crust

To coat the apple slices, mix the maple syrup, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a different bowl

Put the apple mix on top of the crust in the baking dish

To make the crumble topping, sprinkle the rest of the oat mixture evenly over the apples

Put it in an oven that has already been heated up and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are soft

Before cutting the bars into squares, let them cool all the way in the baking dish

Serve and have fun
