Apple Crumble (Gluten, Dairy and Egg-Free)

Submitted by bearhouse5

"A delicious apple crumble made without gluten. My son was intolerant of coconut, so it is also free of that, using flaked almonds instead. In place of the self-raising flour you can simply add 3 teaspoons of gluten-free baking powder to 1 1/2 cups of any all purpose gluten-free flour mix."

I used coconut oil, and flaked coconut. Pretty good.

Wonderfully simple and easy to make. It is also good topped with coconut milk instead of dairy-free ice cream. Also, I used coconut instead of almonds. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!!!

I made this with a flour blend of 3/4c rice, 1/4c sorguhm, and 1/2c corn starch. It worked well, but it was very crumbly (since its called crumble I guess it turned out right). I also used pecans instead of almonds and mixed a few tablespoons of cornstarch with the water so the filling would have a slight sauce to it. It was perfect!

I made this for Christmas and it was a hit! I threw in some dried cranberries. Also, I left the peels on the apples. I will make it again, because my mother-in-law, who is allergic to gluten, just loved it.

Tasty and very easy! I used maple syrup instead of sugar in with the apples, and maple sugar in place of sugar in the topping. I used chopped almonds instead of sliced, and shortening instead of margarine. Next time I will try pecans or walnuts in place of the almonds-- I like the nutty flavor and texture, but think pecans or walnuts might lend more to the dish.
