Ingredients

Topping:

1 cup whole oats make sure that they are certified GF
½ cup Purecane brown Purecane brown is a zero calorie substitute for regular brown sugar that tastes and bakes like brown sugar.
⅓ cup unbleached gluten-free all-purpose flour *see notes for non-GF variation
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup walnuts finely diced
¼ cup coconut oil slightly melted and cooled
3 tablespoon softened butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Apple mixture:

6-7 large baking apples peeled and sliced into small wedges
1-2 teaspoon cinnamon for sprinkling I like a lot of cinnamon, so I do a generous sprinkle
¼ cup Purecane granulated sugar substitute for sprinkling on apples

Instructions

Combine all topping ingredients into a mixer
While mixing, preheat oven to 350 degrees F
When combined your topping should be crumbly
Peel and slice your apples and arrange in a medium-size baking dish (I use an 8 ½ x 11)
Sprinkle generously with cinnamon (1-2 teaspoon or more to taste)
Then top with about ¼ cup Purecane sugar substitute
Sprinkle your topping mixture over apples, then bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes
Let cool for about 15 minutes before serving

Notes

If gluten is of no concern, you can swap out the gluten-free flour for all-purpose white flour or spelt flour.
When coating the apples in cinnamon, I recommend starting with 1 to 2 teaspoons but when I make this recipe, I sprinkle the cinnamon with a very heavy hand -the more the better!
