Equipment

  • 2 bowls & spoon
  • Peeler
  • knife
  • 9 inch by 9 inch baking dish
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

Crust & Crumble Topping

  • 2 cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ cup Old Fashioned Oats
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Plant-Based Butter cold (2 sticks of butter)

Apple Filling

  • 3 cups Apples diced (3-4 apples)
  • 2 tablespoons All Purpose Flour
  • ⅓ cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 tablespoons Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Optional Topping

  • Vegan Caramel Sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line your baking dish with parchment paper
  • Make the crust & crumble topping by stirring together the flour, oats, sugar, vanilla, and salt.
  • Cut in the butter 1 stick at a time until the mixture is crumbly.
  • Pour half of the mixture into the bottom of your parchment lined dish, press down, and bake for 15 minutes.
  • While the crust is baking, make the apple filling by stirring together all of the ingredients. The diced apples should be no bigger than ½ inch thick.
  • Once the crust is done baking, pour the apple filling on top and smooth out, then evenly crumble the rest of the crust & crumble topping mixture on top.
  • Bake for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the crumble topping starts to golden.
  • Allow to cool for at least an hour before removing the parchment paper and bars from the baking dish, cut into 9 bars, top with caramel sauce (and maybe even some vanilla ice cream) and enjoy!

Notes

An 8 inch by 8 inch baking dish will also work well for these.
Use your favorite baking apples for this recipe, such as granny smith or honeycrisp.
