We love having this Apple Peach Crumble for the holidays in place of or in addition to a Deep Dish Dutch Apple Pie. It’s unexpected and delicious and the perfect excuse to add ice cream to a decadent gluten free dessert lineup.
If you want to make quick work of the apples, consider investing in an apple peeler and corer. They are a must if you’re working with apples a lot. Even without that handy piece of equipment, the entire recipes comes together in about 10 to 20 minutes, giving the oven just enough time to preheat.
What Is The Difference Between a Cobbler, Crumble and Crisp?
All three of these desserts have a delicious fruit filling, with the difference primarily in the topping.
Cobblers. A cobbler has a biscuit or scone like topping.
Crumbles. A crumble is historically a combination of sugar, butter and flour that gets “crumbled” over the top of the fruit filling.
Crisps. A crisp will usually have oats added to the topping and it gets sprinkled over the filling.
All of these gluten free dessert options are amazing and you’ll note that this recipe is for Gluten Free Apple Peach Crumble without oats.
Gluten Free Tips and Variations
Drizzle caramel sauce over top just before serving to amp up the indulgence. Chopped nuts make a great topping. Stir in half a teaspoon of vanilla extract in with the apple filling for a beautiful and sensational flavour.
Serve with a dollop of homemade gluten free whipped cream and a dash of apple pie spice or cinnamon.
