Gluten Free Healthy Apple Crumble Pie

I finally got around to using the rest of our apples from Carter's Mountain for a yummy apple crumble pie.  We've been using the apples up as snacks, but there were just enough left to use for the pie that I have been promising.  I took a few hints from recipes online and came up with my own gluten free healthy version.  No butter, no sugar....

Gluten Free Healthy Apple Crumble Pie

Ingredients

Filling:
  •  4 granny smith apples, thinly sliced
  • 1 golden delicious apple, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup of Stevia
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • sprinkle of brown sugar
Crust:
  • 2 cups of spelt flour
  • 6 tablespoons canola oil
  • 4 tablespoons water
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 teaspoon Stevia
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Combine oil, water and salt.  Whisk together.  Add in spelt flour until evenly moist. Use half of this mixture to coat the bottom of the pie dish.
  • Combine all of the filling ingredients in one large bowl and toss until evenly covered with spices.  Pour into pie dish.
  • Use the remaining crust to cover the top of the filling.  I made this more of a crumble than a covering.  Brush with egg white and then sprinkle with Stevia and cinnamon mixture.  
  • Bake for 20 minutes on bottom rack at 425 degrees.  Reduce to 325 degrees and bake an additional 30-40 minutes until the apples are soft.  
  • Let cool for an hour before serving.
