Ingredients
- Filling
3 c chopped apples (1 1/2 - 2 pounds ~3 1/2-4 medium apples)
1 Tbs sugar
1 Tbs lemon juice
1/2 tsp grated lemon zest from 1 lemon
Mix these ingredients together right in the 8" pan or 9" pie plate (we prefer to use stoneware or glass)
*For cooking apple crisp low fat, use equal amounts of Granny Smith and McIntosh apples ~or whatever apples you have!
*Peel, core and chop apples into ~1 inch chunks (you can leave the skin on if you want added nutrition, but it does make the texture slightly different).
Topping Mixture
1/4 cup flour (you can use any kind of flour, rice flour is a nice option and gluten free)
1/4 cup flaxseed
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 Tbs maple syrup (or you can substitue 2 Tbs brown sugar and 1/2 Tbs water)
1 Tbs water
Optional: 1/2-3/4 cup chopped walnuts, pecans or almonds
Optional: if you like oats in your apple crisp topping, add 1/4 cup Oats and 1/2 Tbs water.
