Gluten-Free Caramel Apple Crumble

This Gluten-Free Caramel Apple Crumble features spiced, caramel-coated apples and a deliciously crunchy & buttery crumble topping.

Apple crumble. Oh, man. Apple crumble is possibly my favorite dessert, and for that reason, I don’t make it too often. Most of the dessert I make, I’m able to resist for the most part. I taste, make sure it’s delicious enough to be shared, but I usually try to avoid gorging myself on baked goods because that would be way bad for my health and for my waistline.

Apple crumble, on the other hand, I’m powerless to resist. I just love it. The sweet, spiced apples topped with all that amazing, crunchy, deliciously buttery crumb topping. Everything about it reminds me of fall. Mmm, it’s just the best!

In the fall I have major apple dessert cravings so when I was home for fall break, apple crumble was first on my list. I stumbled upon a jar of caramel in the pantry and voila…caramel apple crumble came to be.

This dessert comes together super quickly, and it makes a small portion – just enough for 2 or 3 people! Being the only person in the house, I could not make a big ole’ dish of this, or it would be gone embarrassingly quickly. However, the recipe doubles (or triples!) easily, so it can be made to feed a crowd.

How to make apple crisp gluten-free

I also opted to make it gluten-free by using almond flour, which worked wonderfully and tasted delicious! However, if you would like, you could substitute regular all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, or all-purpose GF flour and all would work equally as well.

This crumble is perfect for fall, for sharing, and for topping with ice cream and caramel sauce, and I hope you all love it as much as I do!
