{APPLE CRISP}


This is a fat-free apple crisp recipe that is DELICIOUS!

Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 40-50 minutes
Servings: 9

4 large firm apples, peeled and sliced
1 T. lemon juice
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 c. raisins or currents
3/4 c. Grape Nuts cereal
3/4 c. rolled oats
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 c. maple syrup
2/3 c. apple juice
1 t. cornstarch


• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

• Place the apple slices in a bowl and toss with the lemon juice and cinnamon. Place in a non-stick square baking dish and sprinkle with the raisins or currents.

• Mix the Grape nuts*, rolled oats and cinnamon in a separate bowl. Stir in the maple syrup. Spread evenly over the apples. Whisk the apple juice with the cornstarch until well mixed, then pour over the apples and topping. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until apples are tender.

*We actually process the grapenuts in a food processor first, so they're not so crunchy and big.
