Apple Crisp Recipe - no butter - low fat dessert

Heres a butter-free low fat apple crisp recipe for anyone looking to reduce fat but still enjoy dessert. I eliminate the butter in this dessert recipe and substitute healthy safflower oil instead. I take it easy on the refined sugar by using sweeter apples. You can peel the apples if you prefer, but I like to leave the apple skins on for added texture and nutrition.

How to Make an Easy Apple Crisp

Quarter apples and cut out the core, then slice apples into thickness.
Heat 1 Tbsp of oil in a pot on medium high heat and add apples. Reduce heat to medium and cook apples about 5 minutes until they just begin to soften.
Turn off the heat and add the ginger, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Toss with the apples.
Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch and then toss with the apple/ginger mixture.
Lightly oil the bottom and sides of an 8 X 8 baking dish and spread the apple mixture evenly.
In a bowl, combine all of the topping ingredients and mix together well.
Distribute the mix evenly over the apple base.
Bake uncovered in an oven preheated to 350F for about 50 minutes to 1 hour.
Once the topping is browned and the edges begin to bubble, the crisp is done.
Remove from the oven and let sit about 30 minutes before serving.
