Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the gluten-free pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the apple slices with granulated sugar, lemon juice, gluten-free flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Toss until the apples are well coated.
Transfer the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
In a separate bowl, prepare the crumb topping by mixing brown sugar, gluten-free oats, and chopped pecans together.
Add the cold, diced butter to the crumb topping mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the apples in the pie crust.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
If the topping is browning too quickly, tent the pie with aluminum foil halfway through the baking time.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least an hour before serving.
Serve the pie warm or at room temperature. Optionally, pair with gluten-free vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
