    A Vegan Apple Crisp Dessert - A Crunchy and Sweet Oatmeal Topping

    Full of juicy apples and topped off with loads of crispy, oatmeal topping this dessert will please all your guests - not just the vegans. This is an easy vegan Apple Crisp recipe that requires no dough for rolling out.

    What type of apples to use? I prefer using Granny Smith, Fuji, Honeycrisp or a combination of the three. Almanac has a good article you may want to browse to determine what type of apple you would like to use.

    This is a simple vegan dessert recipe and requires no dough to make or roll out. The crisp is best served warm - just place a large serving spoon in the dessert and your guests can scoop out their own portions.

    If your crowd is anything like mine, you have vegans and gluten-free people. This recipe may easily be made gluten-free. Just replace the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour.

    Tips for Making the Apple Crisp Recipe

    • Macerate the apples before baking the pie so you don't have a goopy mess. Macerating is simply tossing the fruit in sugar and allowing to rest for about an hour. This draws out some of the excess juices. Your apples will still be plenty juicy in the dessert.
    • This recipe uses vegan butter. My preference is the Miyoko's brand as I find their products still perform like a traditional dairy butter.
