Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups green apples cored, and sliced thin
  • 1 pint blueberries OR equal amount sliced strawberries
  • 3 Tbsp organic sugar
  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1/2 cup quinoa flakes
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour I used Cup 4 Cup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup Earth Balance cut into small cubes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 F.
  • Place sliced apples in a pie plate. Add the lemon juice, cornstarch, and sugar. Mix with your hands. Place blueberries or strawberries on top of apple mixture.
  • Now prepare the topping. In a medium sized bowl place the quinoa flakes, brown sugar, gluten-free flour, cinnamon and salt. Stir the dry ingredients together. Now add the butter, and work in using a pastry cutter or a fork. You want the topping to be crumbly. (If making both blueberry and strawberry crisps at the same time, you can double the topping recipe).
  • Sprinkle the topping over the apple-berry mixture and bake, for 35 minutes.
  • Invite friends over and serve with ice cream.
