Apple Crisp in a Jiffy

Had a craving for something sweet and I'm trying to avoid the hoards of Halloween candy left in my house. Halloween candy is such a tempting treat - full of chocolate, readily available, and nice "bite size" pieces that make me think its ok if I just eat one, and then one more and one more.  So after some deliberation  between the Halloween candy and the apples that I purchased at noon thinking I'll eat healthier tonight if I have fruit lying around.  Since in the dual between the apple versus the candy I know the apple would loose, I decided to give it a boost and make an individual sized apple crisp instead.  Apple Crisp versus Halloween Candy - Apple Crisp wins!  And if you are my husband you can have your Halloween Candy and Apple Crisp too.

~ 10 min to prep ~ 25 min to bake

The filling:

1 medium apple diced

2 tbsp sugar

splash of orange juice

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp salt

Mix the diced apple, sugar, splash of orange juice, cinnamon, and salt and then divide into 2 custard cups.  

The topping:

1 tbsp sugar

1 tbsp all purpose flour

1 tbsp pecan pieces

2 tbsp oatmeal

1 tsp butter melted

Add the sugar, flour, nuts, and oats to the melted butter.  Mix until it becomes crumbly.  Divide and sprinkle on top of the apple filling.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for ~ 25 min or until apples are tender.

Enjoy one crisp now and have one for later
