Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  • 2 small apples
  • 1 tbsp butter (margarine, low-fat butter, or nut butter)
  • 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 pinch cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt

Method

  1. Wash the apples, remove the cores, and cut them into small pieces.
  2. Add the apple pieces to a small oven-safe baking dish and spread them into an even layer.
  3. Add the whole wheat flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt to a small bowl.
  4. Add the butter or nut butter and maple syrup and mix until small crumbles form.
  5. If the crumble mixture is too soft or wet, mix in a little extra flour.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the apples.
  7. Bake at 320°F (160°C) for about 15 minutes, until the apples are soft and the crumble topping is lightly golden.
  8. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Top with Greek yogurt if desired.
  9. Optional: 2 tbsp low-fat Greek yogurt, for serving

Notes

Optional: 2 tbsp low-fat Greek yogurt, for serving
Apples: Slightly firm apples work well because they keep more texture while baking.
Crumble: If the mixture is too wet, add a little extra flour.
Butter: Low-fat butter or nut butter can be used instead of regular butter.
Serving: Serve warm with about 2 tbsp low-fat Greek yogurt if desired.
