One of my favorite Fall treats is apple crisp with extra topping! I don’t always feel like whipping up a family-sized dessert, so I created this single-serve apple crisp for a quick fix.
This recipe is the ultimate Drive-Thru-Sue treat because it uses the microwave. It can be a real life-saver when those Fall dessert cravings hit and you need something..stat! I prefer using green apples with this recipe because the tartness mixes so well with the sweet topping. I should probably tell you that this recipe has extra strudel and if you’re not a fan of all that topping, feel free to cut the topping portion in half!
You’ll notice this recipe calls for butter. That 1 teaspoon will still keep you in “E” mode while adding a bit of homestyle flavor to the crisp. If you’re cool with a Crossover, add more. With the small amount of butter, the crisp isn’t exactly as crisp as one you’d make in the oven. If you’d like to take the extra time, you can use a little ramekin and bake it at 350 for 15-20 minutes to get a crisper texture.
This recipe serves one, but it is a generous serving, so you can share with a friend! 🙂
To Make This Treat with No Special Ingredients
Use your favorite store-bought sweetener and omit the Baking Blend. Instead, take 1-2 Tablespoons of the oats and blend into oat flour. Voila! 🙂

tried this tonight – so good!
So glad you liked it!
This is delicious with apples and with peaches!
I like to top it with Fat free Greek yogurt that has been sweetened with Vanilla Creme stevia drops. Thanks for the recipe!
Can I use more apple and still keep it in an E?
Yes you can!
I really like this recipe. It is easy and fast, drive-thru Sue here. However, I feel that it is a little dry, especially the oats. Just wondering if more water should be sprinkled over the top or maybe some almond milk mixed in with the dry ingredients? Wondering if anyone feels the same way and made any adjustments. Thank you.
The texture of these recipes really varies by microwave type! 🙂 Yes, I would suggest adding some almond milk or even fat-free half and half to the topping.
Can a big batvh of this be made, like in a 9X13 inch pan?
Oh, definitely! I have a recipe for a big batch in the works right now! 🙂
