This Apple Crisp in a Jar is one of my very favorite recipes to make, and perfect for gift giving! Or, you could make them all for yourself–don’t feel bad if you do that. Apples are healthy, right? ;)

This Apple Crisp in a Jar is the perfect gift or dessert to prep ahead! Apple desserts are my favorite, and this is a family friendly dessert for that everyone will love!

I made a few of the jars gluten free, but I truly think they taste the exact same! You could make all of them gluten free and not compromise the taste.

Apple Crisp In A Jar Recipe

Ingredients for Apple Crisp in a Jar

apples (I used red delicious, but I also love baking with Granny Smith)
sugar
rolled oats (or *gluten free oats)
brown sugar
flour (or *Pamela’s baking mix)
cinnamon
butter
canning jars (makes enough for about 4)

*As a rule, oats are gluten free, but the areas in which they are grown may have been previously occupied by wheat. It’s safest to use gluten free oats if you have a wheat allergy.

And quickly, have I told you about the amazing Pamela’s Baking Mix? Since I stopped eating gluten, Pamela’s makes it possible for me to enjoy baked goods like pancakes, apple crisp, and breads with my family or company when they come. My kids can’t taste the difference when I use Pamela’s in pancakes, and I haven’t had one complaint about my pumpkin bread that I have made with it!

Moving on… :)

Directions for Apple Crisp in a Jar

1.Wash the apples and remove the skin. Then chop them into bite-sized pieces.

2. Add the sugar and stir well. Set the apples aside.

3.Combine oats, baking mix or flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and slowly add in soft butter. Trust me on this one – don’t melt the butter or try to add in cold butter. It just doesn’t work well.

4. Layer oats mixture, another layer of apples, and more oats on top. Fill the jar as much as you can because you’ll be surprised at how much it sinks during baking, making you think that the recipients will rename your gift “Half of an Apple Crisp in a Jar.”

5. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-30 minutes. I just watched for browning, then pulled them out.

6. Viola! Apple Crisp in a Jar. I refrigerated these for a night, and then put them and some mini containers of vanilla ice cream (to fill the other half of the jar that had settled) into a big cooler bag and brought them to the school for the boys’ teachers.
