I love a good apple crisp in the fall from the apples picked right from the trees! Luckily for Pookah, I figured out how to make a really good and easy gluten free apple crisp recipe. Just in time for fall.

Saturday morning, I woke up and the air was cool. It was barely 60 degrees.
Ahhhhhh FALLLLLLL……
I don’t know about you, but my thoughts turned to apples and apple picking. So I gathered up the troops and we headed to BJ Reese Apple Orchard for a morning of apple picking. And then….I got home….with ALL THOSE APPLES.
And so…I got it into my head to bake a gluten-free apple crisp. After all, couldn’t let all of those apples go to waste…
Gluten Free Apple Crisp Recipe
Luckily, a recipe had arrived in my inbox this weekend and I modified it just a bit to make it safe for Pookah to eat. It was EASY!
This is one of the best gluten free apple recipes I have found.
By the time we finished dinner, this gluten free apple crisp was coming out of the oven. And it was delicious.
Especially with ice cream…
So we sat in front of the TV with football on and gorged ourselves on it. I feel like fall is officially here. ( Really it’s next Wednesday, but you know what I mean!)

It was freezing and as I type this I have my heat on full blast. I love apples I don’t normally eat them as is I always have to put them in something I don’t know why that is.
Normally I love Honeycrisp apples. They are so sweet, it’s almost like eating candy. And I’m mad that you have on your heat. PUT ON SOME FUZZY SOCKS!
This sounds like the perfect autumn breakfast or treat. I like that you added dried cherries, as it should add a nice chewy element!
It really did! I’m having some for breakfast right now!
That looks absolutely delicious! This is great news for those who are on a gluten free diet. I am not on any diet, but I can’t wait to try this. My family loves Apple Crisp.
We’re always looking for gluten free recipes and this sounds delicious and looks easy. I love the addition of the cherries!
Fall weather is definitely here! And this looks like the perfect type of sweet to warm us up :)! I’ve made apple crisp but not a gluten free one…this will be great to try! Thanks for sharing!

We are going next week while the kids are on fall break. We went this time last year and it was still so warm but I enjoyed it because it wasn’t so crowded. I didn’t get a lot last year because I didn’t have a plan regarding what to do with them. I will be planning this week so I can freeze some and have them for later in the season.
We will be adding this to our apple recipe list of baked goodies.
I love apple desserts. I need to try your apple crips that is also gluten free. We need to see if gluten is something we need to eliminate. It can be so hard on your body.
It is apple season so this is the perfect recipe!!! I love apple crisp but since turning gluten free I haven’t found one that I liked as much as the one I made with gluten ingredients. This one looks amazing I’ll have to try it out!
I am absolutely going to share this with my brother, who is Gluten Intolerant. This will make his day!
Oh. My. Goodness. This looks absolutely scrumptious! And how perfect for fall! I need to save this for later because my father-in-law is celiac, and we’re always looking for new Gluten Free recipes! I loved your photos, too – so elegant! Thanks for sharing!
This sounds delicious!! I just had to switch to a gluten free diet and have been trying to find all sorts of new recipes to try out. It has finally been cooling off here so this would be perfect to try out now.
This looks really good. I still have not tried an apple crisp yet, I have just heard of them and now it seems like they are everywhere. I thought it was just a new thing to me because I had just moved to Iowa but it seems people everywhere enjoy this. I will have to try it one of these days but I can’t have oats so I will have to try an alternative, thanks for sharing!
I look forward to trying this! I just HAD to buy some apples yesterday. 🙂
This recipe looks and sounds wonderful! We have an apple orchard and often run out of ideas/recipes for all the apples. Gluten-free recipes are even better. Even though I haven’t seen any signs of gluten allergies in our family, you never know. Better to go gluten-free anyway as I understand symptoms can be mild and then get worse later in life!
Fabulous recipe! Thanks! 🙂
We just got back and while I’m exhausted I’m pulling my Pinterest recipe book out! Adding this one to it, sounds like a great breakfast solution.
i saw one of your photos on facebook! Glad you had fun!
This looks amazing and perfect for all. One of my favorite things to do is to pick apples in the fall, nothing better than a fresh apple off the tree. And nothing better than warm apple crisp in my belly. I am gluten-free also. I yummed this for later!

I LOVE a good apple crisp, and this one sounds absolutely YUM. Can’t wait to make it for my fiance!

This looks delicious! We’re headed apple picking this week or next. I’m going to need this recipe!
It’s so quick and easy!! Have fun apple picking!
So would this be healthy since its gluten free? Lol this looks incredible!
Great article. This article is well written and I agree with everything you said. You just took apple crisp to a whole new level…I LOVE it! This looks amazing. I just want to dive right into this for breakfast. Peanut butter is the perfect addition and you really nailed this! I always think about eating crisps for breakfast when I have them in the house! This looks fantastic! Love the peanut butter!
