Take-In Thursday ~ Thanksgiving Apple Cranberry Crisp

We thought that with the big holiday coming up, we would provide healthier recipes for your Thanksgiving feast. Most people expect to see cranberries and apples at the table in some form. We have taken these staple ingredients and provided you with a delicious pie recipe that is much lighter than your grandmother’s pie recipe with her homemade crust made with lard or shortening.  We believe you will love this dessert just as much as that traditional apple pie you have had for years.

Apple-Cranberry Crisp
serves about 8
Ingredients:
3 ½ cups of granny smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
2 cups fresh cranberries, rinsed, drained
1 tsp cinnamon
1 T lemon juice
½ cup sugar
Cooking spray
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup regular oats
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp cloves
¼ tsp nutmeg
½ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup vegetable oil
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Coat an 10” baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Combine the first 5 ingredients in a bowl and pour mixture into prepared pan.
3. Combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, oats, brown sugar and oil, stirring with a fork until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over apple mixture.
4. Bake crisp at 350F for 40 minutes or until bubbly.
Get Fit For It,
