1/3 cup rolled oats (30g)
2/3 cup whole grain spelt flour (white flour, oat flour, or gluten free all purpose flour work as well) (80g)
1/4 cup unrefined sugar or sugar free substitute (50g)

1/3 cup butter or coconut oil, or applesauce for low fat (80g)

1/2 cup rolled oats (50g)
1/2 cup whole grain spelt flour (white flour, oat flour, or gluten free all purpose flour work as well) (60g)
1/4 cup unrefined sugar or sugar free substitute (50g)
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp salt
1/3 cup butter or coconut oil, or applesauce for low fat (80g)

1. Stir all crust dry ingredients well in a medium bowl. Use a fork or pastry cutter to cut in the softened butter, oil, or applesauce until evenly mixed.
2. Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit (176° Celsius). Line the bottom of an 8 inch round springform pan with parchment paper or grease well.
3. Press crust firmly into the bottom of the pan. Bake 12 minutes, then let cool.
4. Toss apple filling ingredients in a large bowl to mix well. Spread over the crust, and set aside.
5. Stir oat crumble dry ingredients well in the medium bowl, then cut in remaining butter, oil, or applesauce to form small crumbles.
6. Sprinkle oat topping evenly over the pie. Bake 50 minutes or until apples are soft and caramelized. (If the crumbles are browning too quickly, cover the pan loosely with tin foil or a baking sheet and continue to bake.)
7. Let the healthy apple pie cool at least 20 minutes before removing the springform. Slice and enjoy hot or cold.
