But first - I have a quick and easy fall dessert recipe to warm you up on the cooler evenings to come. This is a healthier version of apple crisp that can be prepared in 30 minutes flat. The recipe serves two but can be easily doubled or tripled for more. The crisp is made with rolled oats, whole wheat flour, cinnamon, chopped almonds, maple syrup and of course... apples. I used McIntosh apples, but any apple will do!
Right.
Maple Apple Crisp {for two}
Ingredients~
1/2 cup rolled oats
2 Tablespoons whole wheat flour
2 apples {chopped}
1/8 cup raw almonds {chopped}
1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup + 2 teaspoons
1 Tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 Tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt {I used 0%}
How to~
*Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
*Wash and chop the apples into small cubes. Roughly chop the almonds.
*Mix oats, flour, brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon. Microwave the butter for ~15 seconds in a separate dish. Pour the melted butter over the dry ingredients and mix with your hands. Add the chopped almonds and stir.
*Combine apple chunks with 1 Tablespoon of maple syrup and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon.
*Spread the apple mix evenly between two individual serving dishes. Add the crisp mixture on top of apples. Drizzle 1 teaspoon maple syrup over each crisp.
*Bake for ~20 minutes.
*Serve warm, with 1 Tablespoon of Greek yogurt on top of each crisp.
