Sugar-free and gluten-free apple pie
You can easily serve this cake to people who do not want or need to eat sugar-free, because they really won't taste the difference. Ideal for birthdays, for example! The base of almond flour and rice flour is nice and crispy and not too sweet. That is not at all necessary, because the apple and cinnamon filling is naturally sweet.

- 150 grams of coconut oil
- 50 ml agave syrup

How do you make a sugar and gluten-free apple pie?Preheat the oven to 180 degreesMix in a large bowl all the ingredients for the base and knead well. Wrap in aluminum foil and refrigerate for a while (30 min)Now mix in the same bowl the ingredients for the dough for the top. Knead well and also put this dough in aluminum foil separately for a whilePeel the apples and cut each apple into 4 segments and then into slices. Put in a bowl and mix with cinnamon and the lemon juice and possibly raisins or nuts.Grease a springform pan (20 cm) with some coconut oil or olive oil.Take the dough for the bottom and line the springform pan with it, making sure both the bottom and a piece of the side are well covered. The higher the dough on the side, the higher your apple pie will be later.Fill the springform pan with the apple filling and press slightly.Now take the dough for the top. Roll it into strips and line the apple filling with them. If you have some dough left over you can crumble it up and sprinkle it over the apple pie, that will give it just a little extra flavor.Bake the apple pie for about 45-50 minutes until golden brown. Note, every oven is different so keep an eye on your apple pie in the meantime!Let the apple pie cool for 15 minutes and then remove it from the springform pan. Enjoy your meal!
