Ultimate “Little Adapts” Apple Crisp

- littleadaptsbyjax@gmail.com

When I think of Fall/Thanksgiving, I always think of my Momma’s apple crisp with vanilla ice cream 🙂 It was always everyone’s favorite + something we all looked forward to during apple season. I’ve decided I’m going to try to “little adapt” all of my Momma’s favorite recipes using healthier, mostly plant based ingredients so we can all continue to “indulge” without straying from our long-term wellness goals + having any guilt! First up, is my mom’s famous apple crisp + it tastes just as good as the original if not better. I topped it off with vanilla Oatly ice cream + it was dreamy. You can always do banana nice cream too, which is just as good. I dabbled with a few of her recipes last year, but I’m going to continue this through the new year so stay tuned.

*Note: This recipe is nut-free as I know quite a few people with nut allergies and wanted to make sure this recipe suited their dietary restrictions as well. There’s an alternative nut-free topping too or you can just leave it out all together!
