Oat-Free Apple Crisp

Are you ready for the best healthy apple crisp recipe out there? I've been a huge fan of apple crisp since I was a child, and I've enjoyed many versions. This one remains my favorite due to its outstanding flavor (it tastes like an unhealthy recipe!). The fact that it's very simple to put together is an added bonus.

I used granulated monk fruit sweetener in this recipe. I didn’t use quite all of it to sprinkle over the apples, so I dumped what I had left to the sweetener measuring cup for the topping and then just added more monk fruit to fill it up. All in all, I added slightly less sweetener to both the topping and the apples, but I couldn't tell the difference.


Restful Kitchen's Review: "Absolutely marvelous. Best healthy apple crisp recipe ever! Tastes like something loaded with sugar. It’s the perfect texture and the layers hold together well. It’s simple to make. 10 of 10!"

The best sugar-free, oat-free apple crisp you'll ever taste.

Ingredients:
  • 5-6 apples
  • ½ cup monk fruit or other granulated sweetener
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup apple cider or apple juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • For the topping:
  • 1 cup flour of choice
  • 1 cup monk fruit or granulated sweetener
  • 1 stick cold butter (leave in wrapper)
    Equipment:
  • 8"x8" or 9"x9" square baking pan
  • Knife/cutting board/apple cutter
  • 1 cup glass measuring cup
  • Grater
  • Small bowl
Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Wash, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples.
  3. In small bowl, mix cinnamon and sweetener. In the baking pan, add a single layer of the cinnamon mixture. Then place a layer of sliced apples on top of that. Continue layering cinnamon-sweetener with apples until the apples are gone and the pan is full. Cover the final layer of apples with more cinnamon mixture. (You may have extra. Save it and use it in the topping.)
  4. Measure the apple cider in a glass measuring cup. Add the vanilla to the measuring cup. Pour over the apple slices.
  5. For the topping, mix flour and sweetener (adding any leftover cinnamon mixture first) in a small bowl. Hold the butter by the wrapper and grate it into the bowl. Mix together with hands until mixture is crumbly.
  6. Sprinkle topping over apples. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.

How to Organize Your Whole Kitchen in Just Fifty Years

A restful kitchen is an organized kitchen. For me, what could be more relaxing than all the food items beautifully arranged in matching containers that perfectly fit together in the available space, easy to access, easy to use, and easy to maintain?  It seems attainable. After all, the internet is full of organized pantries that spark immediate aspirations to #kitchengoals: Image from How to Create the Perfectly Organized Pantry  I love this pantry from She Gave It a Go. Baskets, clear square containers, uniformity, just the right amount of space between items - both in how it looks and in ease of finding everything, it's a definite success.  Yet if I attempted to model my own pantry after this one, I'd give it a go and give up. For one, I don't have enough paper towels to fill three baskets, and if I did, I'd have to throw out my recycle bin and my oat bucket.  The point is, organization doesn’t have to and shouldn’t involve stress. It’s a...

Pumpkin Surprise Muffins

Easy and delicious, these gluten-free, low carb muffins are a staple in our kitchen. While they're a great choice in the fall with freshly-grown, cooked, and mashed pumpkin, they're also the perfect choice in the winter when I'm staring at my freezer wondering what to cook with all my frozen mashed pumpkin. I especially love this recipe because the surprise filling provides flavor and texture variety more than ordinary muffins, but these are still quick to stir together.
