Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1/4 cup Vegan Yogurt Use soy yogurt for best results.
  • 1/2 cup Vegan Butter Any favorite brand of vegan butter or margarine.
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Sugar Can be substituted with cane or brown sugar.
  • 1.5 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Use regular all-purpose flour for non-gluten-free.
  • 1/4 cup Almond Meal Alternatives include other nut meals or flours.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
For the Apple Filling
  • 3 large Apples Can be any variety like Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, or Honeycrisp.
  • 1/4 cup Organic Cane Sugar Can use any granulated sugar type.
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch Substitute with tapioca flour or arrowroot if needed.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
For the Glaze
  • 1/4 cup Apricot Jam Can be substituted with other fruit jams.
  • 1 tablespoon Water To thin the apricot jam.

Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • Small saucepan
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine apricot jam with water. Stir until melted and smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Strain if needed and let cool.
  2. In a food processor, add cold vegan butter and vegan yogurt. Pulse until creamy, then gradually add gluten-free flour, coconut sugar, almond meal, and salt. Blend until the dough comes together, then roll into a 12-inch circle. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Wash and core apples, then slice into thin wedges. Toss apple slices with organic cane sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl. Set aside.
  4. Preheat oven to 400°F (220°C). Place chilled crust on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pile apple filling in the center, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold crust over apples and brush with apricot glaze.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes until crust is golden and apples are tender. Check at 30 minutes and cover edges with foil if browning too fast.
  6. Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm or let cool completely for later.

Notes

Ensure vegan butter is cold for a flaky crust. Use firm apples to prevent a soggy filling. Slice apples evenly for uniform cooking. Assemble close to baking time for best texture.
