A warm and comforting dessert featuring tender spiced apples topped with a crunchy gluten-free crumble.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a perfect crumble topping.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.
Use a mix of sweet and tart apples for a balanced flavor.
Place the apple slices in a baking dish and sprinkle with cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Ensure the spices and sugar are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, sliced almonds, and brown sugar. Add the butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Use cold butter for a crumbly texture.
Spread the crumble mixture evenly over the seasoned apples in the baking dish.
Press the topping lightly to ensure it adheres to the apples.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Check the crumble halfway through to prevent over-browning.
Let the crumble cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
