Microwave Apple Crisp
I don’t usually like ‘baking’ with the microwave, but this recipe works great. The topping comes out crispy on top, moist inside, and delicious all around. It’s a wonderful dessert that’s quick and easy to make. Best served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping.

Spread the apples evenly in an 8 inch square glass baking dish.

A deep dish glass pie plate will also work.

In a medium bowl mix together the melted butter brown sugar oats flour cinnamon and allspice.
