Cranberry Apple Crisp
This is one of the easiest desserts to throw together in the history of desserts.
Well, ok, maybe not the easiest.
But it requires very little prep and tastes like you slaved over a hot stove for hours.
I personally figure that any recipe with fruit can also be eaten for breakfast.
Right?
I won’t tell if you don’t…
Cranberry Apple Crisp
2 c. sliced apples (or peaches, or a combination of both) 1/2 c. - 2/3 c. frozen cranberries (slightly thawed) A couple glugs of maple syrup sprinkle of cinnamon 1/4 tsp. steviaToss above ingredients together in a pie plate.
For the crisp:
1/2 c. - 2/3 c. gluten-free pancake mix 1/2 c. - 2/3 c. oats 1/2 c. maple syrup 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. stevia dash of nutmegCombine above ingredients in a bowl and rub between your fingers to create a soft crumbly mixture.
Sprinkle the topping over the fruit in the pie plate.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until it’s bubbly and hot.
Then eat the whole crisp in one sitting by yourself share with all your dinner guests and enjoy!

Lori, what kind of Stevia do you use? Are the measurements in your recipe ok for liquid Stevia?

Cecilia-I have been using NuNaturals stevia powder, but am looking for an even more pure/natural brand. The link Lauren gave is great!
I’ve never used liquid stevia, but I believe the measurements should be very similar.

This looks delicious. I extend the breakfast rule to include anything with eggs and/or cinnamon (custard, pumpkin pie filling). And *this* has fruit, cinnamon AND oats - slam dunk for breakfast. Totally justifiable.

Def. Trying this. Love the sense of humor, but I may just eat it all and not share
