1Prepare the gluten-free pie crust and bake for 10-12 minutes. Set aside.
2In a large bowl, mix the apples, brown sugar, cornflour, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla extract. Set aside while the oven heats up.
3Heat the oven to 190°C.
4In a medium bowl, mix the oats, almond flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Add the melted coconut oil and mix until the mixture is thick and crumbly.
5Fill the pie crust with the apple mixture, leaving a little juice to prevent the pie from being too wet. Spread the crumble mixture over the apples.
6Bake for 45-55 minutes, until the edge is golden and the apples are soft. Use a pie plate protector to prevent burning.
7Allow the cake to cool for 2-3 hours before cutting to allow the filling to set. Serve with dairy-free vanilla ice cream or coconut whipped cream if desired.
8Keep leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
