Description
  Apple Pie might be one of my all time favorite desserts. I love the combination of apples and cinnamon; fruit based desserts are seriously underrated. Here is my healthy take on it, which is gluten free, sugar free, nut free, and vegan. It's a delicious and healthy treat that is perfectly sweet from the apples and has a great nutty flavor from the oat flour crust

Instructions
1.  Preheat your oven to 325F and take out an 8" circular pan

2.  In a large bowl, mix together the crust ingredients (oat flour, sweetener, melted coconut oil, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt) until fully combined. The mix should be a little dry, but come together if you press it with your hands

3.  Press the pie crust evenly into your pan, bringing the crust up the sides (if you can, I didn't have enough here) and making sure everything is as packed as possible. Optionally, reserve some crust for a topping (if you have enough)


4.  Blind bake the pie shell for 10 minutes at 325F. Refrigerate to cool as you prepare the filling

5.  Wash your apples (don't peel them!), thinly slice (about 1/4-1/2 inch thick), and add to a large bowl. Add in the rest of the filling ingredients, and mix until fully combined - sweetener, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, cloves, and salt

6.  Increase your oven temperature to 350F, and add the filling to the pie crust. Evenly spread out the apples, and top with any remaining crust mix for a crumble topping


7.  Cover with aluminum foil, and bake for about 60 minutes at 350F, until the apples are tender, soft, and syrupy, but not mushy


8.  Allow to cool totally in the fridge before slicing. Serve either warm or cold
