Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the gluten-free pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and pre-bake it for 10 minutes; set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, 0.25 cup of brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Toss well to coat the apples evenly.
Pour the apple mixture into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free flour and oats.
Add the cold, cubed butter and 0.5 cup of brown sugar to the flour-oat mixture and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to crumble the mixture together until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apple filling in the pie.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
