This delightful twist on apple crumble features a hearty oatmeal cookie topping over perfectly baked apples. A warm, comforting dessert that's vegan and deliciously satisfying.
To prepare the apples: In the prepared baking dish, combine the Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, and Red Delicious apples with flour, maple syrup, and apple juice.
Stir to coat the apples evenly.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
For the topping: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, canola oil, milk, sugar, and vanilla until emulsified.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until well combined.
If desired, fold in raisins.
Remove the foil from the apples and crumble the cookie dough evenly on top of the apples.
Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the cookie topping is golden brown and cooked through.
Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold the next morning.
