This Apple Crisp for One is made with Gala apples, but any baking type apple would be great. They’re simple to make. Enjoy!

If I had to confess, Fall is probably my second favorite season – with Spring being my favorite. If we were just talking about on a food level, Fall would win my vote hands down. Pumpkin, apples and lots of spices …. what’s not to love? 

This month’s Lady Behind the Curtain Dessert Challenge was to use Apples and Cinnamon. I couldn’t believe I didn’t make or share any crisp recipes last year, so I thought I’d redeem myself this year with my Apple Crisp for One. Of course, it’s easy enough to double, triple, quadruple … or even make it times 20 if you want to.

I made these using Gala apples, but any baking type apple would be great. If you’re feeling super indulgent, you can drizzle a bit of caramel over the top and serve the crisp with a scoop of vanilla (or cinnamon – I’ve been looking for it in the stores, but haven’t seen any locally yet!!) ice cream!

If you’re a blogger and you are interested in learning more about the dessert challenge, be sure to stop by Sheryl’s blog for more information! 🙂 Let’s check out that Apple Crisp for One now:

    I love both the season and the food. Plus, my birthday is in the Fall too. Great to come up with a crisp for one. Sometimes you just want a little dessert and baking a whole cake can be dangerous. Thanks for sharing it iwth us on foodie friday.

    Great idea to have recipes for one! I am alone a lot as the hubster works evening shifts, and I don't want to make a huge batch of anything. Thanks for sharing at the memories by the mile link party. Deb @ kneaded creations.
