Gluten-Free Birthday Breakfast Crisp

Preheat your oven to 375º.

Place 3/4 cup of the rolled oats in your spice grinder (you may need to do this in two batches), and blend the oats for 30 seconds or so, or until they turn into a fine powder or flour.In a medium-sized bowl, combine your freshly processed oat flour with the remaining rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

Add the maple syrup and the margarine or oil, and cut everything together until large crumbs form. If the mixture is too wet, add some more oats or brown sugar … to your liking.Slice or chop the apples (I leave the peel on for more fiber) and place the apples in an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish.

Sprinkle the crumble mixture over top of the apples, and bake for 35 minutes, or until the apples are nice and soft and the crisp is crispy (but not burnt of course!).
