Vegan Apple Crisp!
This Vegan Apple Crisp takes a classic fall favourite and transforms it into a healthier, but equally as delicious version! I wanted to create an apple crisp that was not only vegan, but gluten-free and refined sugar-free as well. This version contains less fat and sugar and is sweetened naturally with a little maple syrup. It is made with whole oats and oat flour instead of refined flour. These simple swaps result in a healthier version of a classic apple crisp that still tastes just like my childhood favourite recipe.
This recipe is perfect to use up freshly picked apples. I went apple picking on the weekend and made this apple crisp with a bunch of fresh apples. The smell of this Vegan Apple Crisp baking will fill your house with the aroma of fall!
