When September 1st hits, America brings out everything apple, pumpkin and squash. I love the fall because a lot of the fruit on my parent's farm is being harvested including peaches, concord grapes, apples and pears. This Protein Apple Crisp is full of flavor and makes the best easy treat!

On good years, there is a surplus of apples and I like to get creative in what to do with them. I love to make big batches of applesauce and freeze it in ziplock bags to enjoy year round. I like to add apples to pancakes and waffles. I make microwaved baked apples with cinnamon, brown sugar and a little butter. So many great options!

This year, I decided to try a healthy protein apple crisp. Last year, I made a healthier protein fruit crisp which became one of my most popular recipes and is still being re-pinned daily! This recipe works well with the apples. You can use any kind that you like. If you want something tart, granny smith are great. If you want sweet, I love honeycrisp or golden delicious which get very soft which I enjoy.

This Protein Apple Crisp recipe turned out great and I will continue to make it with all different fruit fillings. It tastes indulgent but is a lot lighter than the original recipe with a boost of protein, whole-wheat flour and oats for fiber as well as less sugar.

  1. What can we use instead of protein powders. I'm all for just plant based foods only. I don't want to have to go to some health food store and get protein powder.
