Gluten-Free Apple Pie

In 2013, I went gluten-free to help with my Crohn's symptoms and it changed my life. I am not here to preach about a gluten-free diet, rather I am here to offer those who have given it up a delicious dessert that is free of gluten, as well as refined sugar – yet it has a ton of flavor!

Apples and cinnamon are an amazing combination, and when adding a crumbly topping, you have all of the ingredients for a tasty and satisfying dessert that is gentle on the tummy.
