If there is one thing I look forward to in the Fall season, it has got to be the Sweet Potato Casserole, and my all-time favorite, this quick and easy Apple Crisp with Oats! It just screams comfort, warmth and heavenly satisfaction.

Fall is the beginning of the “keep me warm and cozy” season that runs through to the end of winter. During this time of year, it’s natural to gravitate towards comfort foods, like a bowl of the classic Apple Crisp with oats.

And as the smell of cinnamon fills my heart, you come to realize that Fall is not just about snuggling under a blanket or sitting near a fire place. It’s more about what warms the soul!


Why make Apple Crisp?

This Classic Apple Crisp with oats recipe is a great way to get in some carbs and a warm dish during the cold. It can be served as a delicious breakfast, or a snack to keep you energized.

Despite the fact that it is packed with flavors, the recipe is quite light so it won’t make you feel sluggish after having a serving. It’s a product of basic ingredients, short cooling time, and a whole lot of love!

This Apple Crisp with Oats recipe is easier than pie! There is no force that would stop us from adoring a good homemade pie, but we can all agree that it is a labor of love. So put away your rolling pin, because this Apple Crisp is the next best thing!


Let’s Talk Benefits!

Sometimes, we don’t necessarily need a reason to indulge in some apple crispy goodness. But if you are wondering, this recipe does add major health benefits to your diet!

The Oats in this recipe are a great source of those positive carbs your body needs to replenish energy and stay warm. They are loaded with dietary fibers, cholesterol-lowering properties, and improve general metabolic health.

And since the base of this dessert is apples, it is safe to say that their health properties are undeniably prominent. Apples are high in fiber, promote heart health, and possess antioxidant content.


Greet Fall the Right Way!

This Apple Crisp with oats recipe is filled with everything Fall. This recipe is all about Apples bubbling in their own juices, topped with a crunchy oat-pecan streusel!

The Best Fall Themed Desserts!

As I previously said, fall season is more than a cold weather, sweet cuddles, and horror movies marathons. It is all about satisfying all of our senses! And the most important one is that of taste.

For that reason, I come bearing a list of my favorite Fall treats of apples, oats, and pumpkin.

Let’s start off with a healthy breakfast! And for that I recommend trying my Banana Oatmeal Protein Shake. It is exceptionally delicious, nutritious, and a perfect pick-me-up breakfast before a long hard day!

If you are craving a blissful crispy and golden layer of a Fall-infused treat, then your heart is calling for my Irresistible Apple Nachos and Apple Pie Roll Ups recipe! This is the sweetest way to use up the most bountiful of fall fruits!

Finally, I’ll let you in on what gets me cooking credits as mommy of the year during family gatherings! My Baked Pumpkin Spice Donuts are moist, flavorful, and will bring Autumn vibes into your home any time of the year!


Tips for the Best Apple Crisp

Whether you are an experienced cook, or a newbie testing out a delicious recipe, guidance in the kitchen is always appreciated. So let me pull out some tricks from under my sleeve which will guarantee you perfect results every time!

Tip 1: Slice your apples thinly when preparing for this recipe for an even cook. Although we love a crunchy apple in most occasions, this recipe requires a tender bite.

Tip 2: Although I have always used regular butter for this recipe, you can substitute it with margarine or any dairy-free option if you prefer.

Tip 3: Don’t miss the opportunity of allowing this warm dessert to shine by serving it plain. Serve your Apple Crips with oats with a scoop of traditional vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of salted caramel. The extra sweetness is definitely worthy!


Frequently Asked Questions

Should I peel the apples?

There is no right or wrong answer for this question because it completely depends on your personal preference. Although I usually recommend peeling the apples for this recipe, making it kid-friendly, you can keep the skin if you prefer

What’s the difference between apple crisp and apple crumble?

The difference is quite subtle, but here is what you should know. Both are baked fruit dessert with a layer of toppings. But unlike the apple crisp, an apple crumble’s topping rarely includes oats or nuts.

Does my Apple Crisp with Oats need to be refrigerated?

Fruit fillings prepared with sugar can hold for up to 2 days at room temperature. So if you are planning on eating your dessert within that time period, there is no need to refrigerate it. However, if you feel you will be stuck with leftovers, then place it in the fridge. it should hold for about 5 days.
