Ingredients

This easy, healthy apple crisp recipe is the most delicious way to enjoy fall's favorite fruit. It's full of flavorful spices, some extra sweetness from dried cranberries, and of course, lots of fresh apples. This lower-sugar apple crisp recipe takes just minutes to make, and it's surprisingly healthy and high in fiber. Choose crisp, firm apples for baking, like Gala, Fuji, Macintosh, Granny Smith, or Braeburn.

Ingredients

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cut

Quarter and cut the apples into slices. You don't have to peel them unless you prefer to avoid the skins. Place apple pieces in a pie plate or shallow baking dish.

Mix

Mix pumpkin pie spice and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Sprinkle pumpkin pie spice-cornstarch mixture over apples, and toss lightly.

Soften the apples

Microwave apples for approximately 3 minutes on high or until they are slightly softened. Sprinkle cranberries over cooked apples.

Combine

While apples are cooking, place oats, walnuts, brown sugar, and butter in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse about 15 times until mixture is well combined and resembles damp sand.

Mix seeds

Mix the pumpkin seeds into the oat mixture by hand. Sprinkle oat, nut, and seed mixture over apples and cranberries.

Garnish and enjoy

Bake 12-15 minutes or until apples are bubbly and tender and topping is golden. Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or vanilla yogurt if desired.
