Ingredients
Pie crust
- 9-inch gluten-free pie crust
Apple filling
- 2 tablespoons (28g) non-dairy butter
- 2 lbs (907g) apples, cut into ¼-inch/0.5cm slices (about 6 large apples)
- ¼ cup (37g) gluten-free all-purpose flour blend*
- ½ cup (100g) light brown sugar (granulated sugar works well too)
- pinch of salt
- 1¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
Oat pecan streusel
- 4 tablespoons (57g) non-dairy butter, cubed and chilled
- ½ cup (100g) light brown sugar
- ½ cup (60g) gluten-free all-purpose flour blend*
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon (15g) non-dairy milk
- ½ cup (45g) gluten-free rolled oats
- ½ cup (57g) chopped pecans
Instructions
Pie crust
- Preheat the oven to 425°F/220°C.
- Roll the pie dough out into an 11in/28cm circle, and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Chill in the freezer for 10min. Use a fork to pierce the bottom and sides of the pie crust. Fit a crumpled piece of parchment paper in the pie crust and fill it to the top with pie weights (dry beans and dry rice work great).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 17min. Remove the pie weights and bake for another 2min. Take it out of the oven and let it cool.
Apple filling
- Heat dairy-free butter in a pan over medium heat. Add apples, sugar, salt, and spices. Toss and cook until the juices have been released. Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour and toss again. Let it cool.
Streusel
- In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Add dairy-free butter and work it into the flour mixture until it resembles wet sand. Add dairy-free milk and mix again. Add gluten-free oats and chopped pecans and mix.
Assembly
- Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C.
- Put the cooled apple filling into the cooled pie crust and smooth the surface using a spatula. Sprinkle the streusel on top of the apples evenly. Bake for 45-50min. Cool completely before slicing.
Notes
* For the gluten-free all-purpose blend: I suggest using one that includes xanthan gum. I've tested this recipe with Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour and Robin Hood Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Blend. Both work great!!
