Dairy Free Dutch Apple Pie
I love how simple this pie is to make and the filling is delectable.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
Crust and Topping
- 2 cups flour
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup oatmeal
- ¾ cup plant butter or regular butter melted (I use country crock to make it dairy free)
Filling
- 3 cups diced apples peeled if desired
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 TBSP brown sugar
- ¾ tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1 TBSP coconut oil
- ½ cup water
- 1 TBSP cornstarch
Instructions
- Mix together the first 4 ingredients until it is a smooth crumbly texture. Measure out 1 cup for the topping and set aside.
- Pour the rest of the crust mixture into a 9” pie plate. Spread it into the pie plate to form a crust by using the palm of your hand to form the bottom and work it up the sides of the plate.
- Chop the apples for the filling and place in a medium sized bowl. Add in the white and brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium sized saucepan or cast iron fry pan, melt the TBSP of coconut oil over medium heat.
- Mix together the cornstarch and water and set aside.
- Add in the apple mixture to the fry pan and cook together until a thin syrup starts to form. Then stir the water and cornstarch one more time and add it to the apple mixture. Cook together until a thick syrup has formed.
- Remove from heat and pour into the prepared crust.
- Use the remaining 1 cup of crust mixture to crumble over the top of the pie.
- Tent your pie using thin strips of tin foil.
- Bake at 350 for 40 minutes.
- Serve warm with your favorite dairy free ice cream or some coconut whip cream.
