BAKED APPLE CRISP

Baked Apple Crisp is the perfect combination of warm, spiced apples and a crunchy oat topping, creating a delicious yet wholesome treat. Unlike traditional apple crisps, which use butter and refined sugar, this lightened-up version relies on natural sweetness from honey and the nutty goodness of rolled oats. Cinnamon enhances the rich aroma, making this dessert taste indulgent while keeping it nutritious. This simple recipe is great for breakfast, a midday snack or a light dessert. It’s naturally high in fibre, low in fat and free from processed sugars, making it a guilt-free way to satisfy your sweet tooth. This dish is served warm with a dollop of Greek yoghurt, a drizzle of almond butter or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence. This baked apple crisp is sure to become a favourite whether you’re making it for a quick weeknight treat or a fall-inspired dessert.

TIPS

  • Choose the Right Apple: Use a crisp variety like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith or Fuji for the best flavour and texture.
  • Keep the Peel On: Apple skins provide extra fibre and nutrients, making the dish even healthier.
  • Enhance the Crunch: Mix in a teaspoon of chopped nuts like walnuts or almonds for a nuttier texture.
  • Make It Extra Sweet: If you prefer a sweeter version, add a teaspoon of maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Serve with a Topping: Pair with Greek yoghurt, almond butter or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added richness.

VARIATIONS

  • Gluten-Free Option: Use certified gluten-free oats for a 100% gluten-free version.
  • Extra Protein: Add a spoonful of chia seeds or hemp seeds for a protein boost.
  • Spiced Apple Crisp: Mix in a pinch of nutmeg or ground ginger for an even warmer flavour.
  • Caramel Apple Twist: Drizzle a small amount of sugar-free caramel sauce before serving.
  • Berry Apple Crisp: Add a handful of fresh or frozen berries like blueberries or raspberries for a fruity mix.
  • Savory-Sweet Version: Add a sprinkle of sea salt and rosemary for a unique twist.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
  • Freezing: Freeze the assembled, unbaked crisp for up to 2 months. Bake directly from frozen, adding an extra 5-7 minutes to the cooking time.
  • Make-Ahead Friendly: Prepare the apple mixture in advance and store it in the fridge overnight, then bake fresh when needed.
