Dairy Free Easy Apple Crisp

Cook time40 min

Juicy apple slices get tossed with a touch of sugar, cinnamon, and bright lemon juice, then piled into a baking dish to soften and bubble in the oven. The topping is where this crisp really shines: hearty rolled oats, brown sugar, and warm cinnamon come together in coarse, clumpy crumbs that bake up deep golden and crisp on top of all that tender fruit. As it bakes, the apple juices bubble up around the edges while the topping turns crunchy and caramelized, filling the kitchen with that classic cinnamon-apple smell. Let it rest for a few minutes out of the oven so the filling sets up just enough to scoop cleanly, then serve it warm with your favorite frozen or whipped topping on the side. It's a cozy, fuss-free dessert that fits neatly into a dairy free spread without sacrificing any of that comforting, old-fashioned flavor.
