Weight Watchers-Friendly Apple Crisp

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium apples (about 4 cups sliced) – use a mix of tart and sweet apples like Granny Smith and Honeycrisp
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar substitute (like Splenda or Monk Fruit)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp light butter or margarine, melted
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
  • Cooking spray

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the apples: Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place them in a mixing bowl, toss with lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Layer the apples: Spread the apple slices evenly in a baking dish (8×8-inch works well). Pour the water over the apples to prevent sticking.
  4. Make the topping: In a separate bowl, mix the oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar substitute, and salt. Add melted light butter and applesauce, stirring until combined and crumbly.
  5. Add topping to apples: Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apples.
  6. Bake: Lightly spray the top with cooking spray and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
  7. Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes and serve warm.
