Looking for a quick 'n easy dessert to serve this holiday? Here's a simple gluten-free and vegan apple crisp that can be made in under 30 minutes and it's made with a fun (and healthy) gluten-free granola -- which I have a hard time finding in the stores. I've been using it atop yogurt, on desserts and even eating it out of the bag as a desk-side snack when I have the afternoon munchies. But for this recipe I decided to toss it with fresh apples, flax seeds and agave nectar to create a flavorful treat that can be enjoyed by everyone (and they don't even have to know it's gluten-free or vegan). Who would have thought you could make a gluten-free great tasting dessert made from 100 percent whole grains like quinoa, amaranth, oats, millet and buckwheat?
