Trim Healthy Mama Version of My Mama’s Apple Crisp

Fall is my favorite time of year!  I enjoy:

Cooler weather

Leaves changing colors

Turtlenecks – All fall clothing, really

Pumpkins, squash, and gourds

My parents birthdays

Thanksgiving holiday meant a family gathering time in my growing up years

A fire in the fireplace

Well, that spontaneous list came together in a snap! One of the *things* my mama would make during this wonderful season was an Apple Crisp and she’d serve it up warm to us as my brother and I would spin in those yellow leather swivel chairs around our kitchen table. I have so many good memories of my mama and our growing up years.  Since we are eating healthier, I thought I would make a Trim Healthy Mama version of my mama’s apple crisp, so I did:

Mama’s Apple Crisp

Place in greased (with coconut oil) 8″ square pan…

• 4 cups sliced, pared, cored baking apples

Blend until crumbly; then spread over apples…

• 1/4 cup Gentle Sweet (click here to order)
• 1 cup Old Fashioned Oats
• 3/4 tsp. cinnamon
• 2 Tbsp, soft butter

Bake until apples are tender and topping is golden brown.  Serve warm with cream or a whipped topping.

Temperature: 375 degrees

Time: Bake 30 to 35 minutes

Amount: 6-8 servings

Try it Mamas! You will like it!  You may remember my post Trim Healthy Mama Apple Crumble Recipe & Review linked here. And you may want to try that recipe as well.  And in case you just want a recipe the way my mama made it, here is the section of her original recipe before I made my THM version:

Blend until crumbly; then spread over apples…

2/3 to 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)

1/2 cup sifted flour

1/2 cup rolled oats

3/4 tsp. cinnamon

1/3 soft butter

And mama would serve it will vanilla ice cream, oh yes, she would.  I served our healthy version warm with a dollop of a cream topping. Yum. I also served this to friends and asked them to write their reviews on a anonymous card:

So Yummy!
