Oat-Free Apple Crisp

Oat-Free Apple Crisp layers tender, cinnamon-kissed apples beneath a golden, buttery crumble that’s crisp at the edges and soft where it meets the fruit. The balance of warm spice and caramelized sugar makes it perfect for cool evenings, holidays, or anytime you’re craving a classic apple dessert without oats.
