A few weeks ago while at a baseball game, Grandma and I started talking about the upcoming holiday season. We wondered whether my parents would want to host Thanksgiving and Christmas at their house in Northern California, or if they’d be open to spending either holiday in Southern California with Grandma and her adorable pups.
As we chatted, my mind spun into menu-planning mode… Specifically desserts… And especially pies. (No surprises there, I’m sure!) Thoughts of apple and pecan and pumpkin pies topped with whipped cream—or ice cream, even better!—swirled around my head as we watched the rest of the baseball game.
When we finally arrived back at home five hours later, I still couldn’t shake my resulting pie cravings… But since an easy cinnamon-spiced streusel sounded a bit better than rolling out homemade pie dough, I ended up baking this instead…
The Ultimate Healthy Apple Crumble! Juicy apples with a crumb topping and baked to tender perfection. My entire house smelled absolutely irresistible, just like cozy cinnamon, and this dessert tasted even better!
And you’d never guess it by how delicious this crumble tastes but… It has a full serving of fruit, no refined flour or sugar, and just 116 calories! Which basically makes it healthy enough for breakfast in my book!
Bonus: This crumble is so easy to make! Learn how by watching my short video below, then grab the recipe directly beneath the video!
It would be great if the the recipes were printer friendly. When I try to print them they are split between two pages. Also, having the nutritional information printed on the same page would help too. I am a diabetic and nutritional information is very important to me.
Thanks
I appreciate your feedback Linda! I’ll take that into consideration moving forward. 🙂 I can’t wait to hear what recipe you try next!
Hi Amy, This looks like a must try -TODAY! -or as soon as I can get all the ingredients. I would like to suggest you use a darker font for your website as my eyes are not what they used to be. -Shukran Habibi, from Dubai
Thanks for your feedback! I appreciate it. 🙂 I can’t wait to hear what you think of this crumble!
As always, right on your page! I’m already thinking about Fall! Maybe it’s because I’m over the 100+ degree weather… 🙂
I think I was over the 100° weather by the beginning of June when I lived up there… ? Stay cool, along with your plants!! Maybe planting pumpkins will help the fall weather get here faster! 😉
I came across this recipe as I was looking for a sugar free dessert recipe with apples. It was one of the best tasting and healthy-ish dessert I’ve ever made and my boyfriend and my colleagues all LOVED this crumble so much. I cannot wait to make some again for my parents and will be checking out more recipes of yours!
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed this apple crumble Casey! That truly means SO much to me that you’d already want to make it again. That’s the best kind of compliment I ever could’ve imagined — thank you so much for taking the time to let me know! 🙂 I can’t wait to hear what other recipes of mine you decide to make in the future, too!
