Apple crisp recipe...

Want some this week... and apples are in season... anyone got a WLS one?  I CAN do sugar and make it MY way... BUT I know that's not necessarily a good thing..

I use my regular recipe and just substiture 1/2 splenda & 1/2 sugar. It tastes fine to me. The topping isn't quite as crunchy, but it works.

1 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup splenda
1 stick of butter (you do have to use real butter!)

Mix flour and sweetner, cut in butter. Topping will be crumbly.

5 large apples, peeled and sliced with cinnamon sprinkled on them to taste. (sometimes I pre-cook the apples a little)

place apples in baking dish, sprinkle topping over. Add more cinnamon. Bake
at 325 for about 45 minutes. You can brown the top for a couple of minutes if so desired.

 
A small serving of this is all I can handle because it is SWEET. But it satisfies the craving :)

Good luck.

I usually make some variation of Eggface's fruit crumble
