When you’re too lazy to make apple crisp, try making this recipe for baked apples! All you do is slice the apples in half and core the seeds out, then top them with the crumb mixture and bake them in the oven. No chopping or dicing the apples at all and you can even make them in your air fryer instead of your oven. They can be made at any time of the year and not just during the Fall. It is the perfect recipe for only 1 or 2 people.

Ingredients for Baked Apples
Apples - use some good baking apples such as Honey Crisp, Fuji, or Gala
Margarine - To help lower the WW points for these apples. If you aren’t tracking butter or margarine works.
Oats - I like Old fashion for texture
Flour - Whole wheat flour can be used instead of white flour. If gluten free, use a gluten-free flour.
Brown Sugar - used for sweetness, can use your favorite sugar substitute for a replacement!
Cinnamon

How do you figure out points for recipes?
The recipe builder app from WW is what I use to figure out points for all my recipes. You have to pay the monthly fee in order to use it.
Why am I still getting different points from what you have listed?
This could be quite a number of reasons and here are a few that I have come across.
- Number of servings
- Low-Fat vs Fat-Free ingredients
- Zero Point foods are different for all 3 plans
- Using the nutrition info calculator instead of the recipe builder
