Apple Crisp Bars

Apple Crisp Bars! Think your favorite apple crisp recipe but in a bar form with a scrumptious crumble topping and base. Delicious!

Ohhhhhh apple crisp, you gotta love it! For me it brings me back to my childhood and my mom constantly baking apple crisp, cobbler, and pie all summer long because we had several apple trees and we couldn’t quite keep up with them. For some reason no one would ever eat the apples by themself (they were pretty small) and everyone would always favor the peach trees.

And yet my dad kept replacing all the peach trees with apple trees…. why you ask? Because friends my dad is an enigma who’s better left as a mystery. Aren’t all dads though, if we’re being honest? Dads are gonna do what Dads are gonna do.

Anywho, these bars are super simple, low in sugar, and just dang delicious. The flavors of an apple crisp just can’t be beat! I recommend serving these with a scoop of vanilla bean or caramel ice cream!

To make these Apple Crisp Bars you will need:

• rolled oatmeal
• one one gluten free flour
• coconut sugar
• cinnamon
• nutmeg
• salt
• baking soda
• coconut oil
• Granny Smith apples
• maple syrup

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a large bowl combine the sliced apples, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir to combine. Add in the flour, stir to combine again, and set aside.
3. In a second bowl combine the rolled oatmeal, flour, coconut sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and baking soda. Stir to combine. Next add in the melted coconut oil and stir to combine again.
4. Place 1/2 cup of the crumble mixture aside and press the remaining into the bottom of the baking dish. Spoon the apple mixture onto the crust (don’t dump. You don’t want the liquid from the bottom of the bowl). Gently even them out.
5. Crumble the remaining oat mixture on top of the apples, cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 25-30 minutes, or until the crumb is golden brown.
6. Let cool completely, slice into bars, and serve.
