Vegan Apple Crisp

Cozy, comforting and irresistibly simple, this vegan apple crisp is everything you crave in a fall dessert without the fuss of making pie crust from scratch. A layer of tender, cinnamon-spiced apples bubbles beneath a golden, oat-studded topping that’s crisp, buttery and perfectly sweet. As it bakes, the fruit softens into a jammy, caramelized filling that fills your kitchen with the warm scent of autumn. Served warm from the oven with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream melting over the top, it’s a crowd-pleasing treat that captures all the best flavors of the season in every spoonful.
