I used apples from my tree. And gluten free flour and old fashioned oats. I also added walnuts to the topping. I baked it for the recommended time, but ended up baking it for 1 hour, 10 minutes to get the apples soft enough to not be crunchy. The flavors are wonderful!! The aroma filled my kitchen and overflowed outside, attracting a bit of attention. Ended up giving half away before we even got to try it!! It was an instant hit!! Be making this again, soon. Maybe two...
