Who’s ready for the new year? I really hope 2024 turns out well and we somehow stumble into peace.

As promised, here’s my recipe for the apple cranberry crumble that I made for Christmas. It’s a really simple recipe. If you have leftovers, wrap the dish in plastic wrap and put in refrigerator.

You can use any apples, but remember if you use tart ones, add more sugar substitute to offset the tartness of both the apples and cranberries.  It will keep a few days.

Apple Cranberry Crumble

Ingredients:

2 cups chopped peeled and cored Gala Apples (about 4 small)
2/3 cup Cranberries
2/3 cup Sugar Substitute
1 tablespoons Whiskey (optional)
2 tablespoons old-fashioned or quick-cooking Oats
2 tablespoons Swerve Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 cup Low Carb All-purpose Flour
3 tablespoons Butter, melted
1/2 cup chopped pecans, optional

Instructions:
In a buttered 8-in. square baking dish, combine apples and cranberries; stir in whiskey if using, and sprinkle with sugar. In another bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, flour and butter; sprinkle over apple and cranberry mixture. Top with pecans if desired.

Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 55 minutes or until browned and bubbly. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.
