Ingredients

    blank

    • 10 cups Granny Smith apples (peeled, cored, sliced into ⅛ inch thick slices then cut in half)

    • ½ cup Lakanto Brown Monkfruit & Erythritol Sweetener (tightly packed)

    • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour

    • ¼ cup granulated sugar

    • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

    • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    blank

    • 1 ⅓ cups quick cooking oats

    • 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour

    • 1 cup of Lakanto Classic Monkfruit Sweetener with Allulose

    • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

    • ½ teaspoon salt

    • ½ teaspoon baking powder

    • ¾ cup unsalted butter (melted)

    Directions

    1. Step 1: Preheat oven.
      Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick baker’s spray and set it aside.

    2. Step 2: Prepare the Apple Filling
      In a very large mixing bowl, combine: the sliced apples, Lakanto Brown Monkfruit & Erythritol Sweetener, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, vanilla extract.
      Gently fold these ingredients together until the apple slices are evenly coated with the sugars and spices.

    3. Step 3: Transfer to Baking Dish
      Pour the apple filling mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it into an even layer while ensuring not to pack it too tightly.

    4. Step 4: Make the Crisp Topping
      In another large mixing bowl, add: quick cooking oats, all-purpose flour, Lakanto Classic Monkfruit Sweetener with Allulose, ground cinnamon, salt, baking powder.
      Stir these dry ingredients together until well combined.

    5. Step 5: Combine with Melted Butter
      Pour in the melted butter into the oat mixture. Stir until fully combined, ensuring no dry pockets of flour remain

    6. Step 6: Assemble Apple Crisp
      Spread the crisp topping evenly over the apple filling. Make sure all areas of the apple mixture are covered with crispy goodness.

    7. Step 7: Bake
      Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes or until the topping turns golden brown and juices bubble from the apple filling.

    8. Step 8: Cool Before Serving
      Allow your apple crisp to cool on the counter for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps thicken the juices slightly so that each slice holds its shape perfectly!
