Apple Crisp

Fruit pies and fruit crisps have always been one of my favorite types of desserts! The first six months of living gluten free, I started making fruit crisps instead of pies because I was too scared to work with all the different types of gluten free flours. I am now much braver and am willing to use gluten free flours; however, this is still one of my favorites. I love this apple crisp because the apple filling is made using my mom's recipe and the crisp is made using my recipe! Nothing is better than my mom's apple pie. Even people who HATE pie love my mom's. My little brother's favorite is my Cherry Crisp recipe which will be posted tomorrow. :) Anyways, enjoy it and let me know what you think! It can be eaten warm with ice cream or cold.
