Directions

• To make the topping: In a medium-size bowl, combine the crumb topping ingredients and mix with a fork until it resembles chunky crumbs. Refrigerate while you prepare the apple filling.
• Add the peeled and chopped apples to a large bowl. Add the lemon juice, milk, melted butter, pure vanilla extract, packed brown sugar, ground cinnamon, gluten-free flour, and salt and stir until fully combined.
• Set up your dutch oven with 10 briquettes on the bottom and 10 on top (use more as time goes on to replace.)
• Pour the apple mixture into greased dutch oven and spread in to an even layer. Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over the apples. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
• ENJOY!
