How to Make Vegan Apple Crisp No Margarine

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice and ¼ cup of the granulated sugar. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, remaining ¾ cup of granulated sugar, oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  4. Cut in the cold vegan butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Stir in the optional nuts if using.
  6. Pour the apple mixture into a deep 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
  7. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apples.
  8. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream (optional)!
