Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease an 8-inch pie dish or baking dish with coconut oil.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, unsweetened applesauce, and melted coconut oil.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will have a thin consistency.
Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, ensuring it spreads out evenly.
If using fresh fruit or jam as a topping, gently dollop it across the surface and lightly swirl it into the batter with a toothpick or knife.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pie is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the pie to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Optionally, top with additional fruit, coconut cream, or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra sweetness.
