Somewhat Low Fat Apple Crisp!

 

This is a great easy last minute dessert 

that is perfect for during the week or a special occasion! 

Ingredients
3 Pounds of Fiji Apples (or whichever Apple you prefer)
Zest of 1 Small Orange
Zest of 1 Lime
Zest of 1 Lemon
2 Tbspn. of Fresh Lime Juice
2 Tbspn. of Fresh Lemon Juice
2 Tbspn. of Fresh Orange Juice
1/4 Cup of Splenda
1 Tbspn. of Cinnamon
1 1/2 Tspn. of Fresh Grated Nutmeg


Crumble Topping:
1 Cup of Flour
1 Stick of Butter (if desired substitute healthier versions of butter, i.e. Smart Balance or I Can't Believe It's Not Butter)- Cold and Cut into Pieces
1/2 Cup of Splenda
1/2 Cup of Brown Sugar Splenda
1/2 Tspn. of Salt
1 Cup of Oatmeal

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 Degrees Fahrenheit. Pam a 9"x13" pan.

Wash, peel and slice the apples into medium size slices. In a large bowl combine the slices apples, lime, lemon and orange zests and juices, spices and Splenda. *If you prefer the filling of the crisp to be a little thicker add a sprinkle of flour to the apple mixture. Place apple mixture into the bottom of the 9"x13" greased pan.

For the topping, pull out your Food Processor as this is the easiest way to make it! Combine your butter, flour, Splendas, oatmeal, and salt into the Food Processor. Pulse the mixture until it has combined into a crumble like topping together with very small pieces of the butter still visible. Sprinkle the crumbly topping over the apple mixture. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on your oven!

You can serve the Apple Crisp warm or you can also serve it with some low fat vanilla ice cream if you prefer!
