Transcript:Easy Apple Crisp Recipe

Hi I'm Rachel Edelman for About.com Food. Today I'm going to show you how to make an apple crisp dessert in the microwave.

Prepare the Apple

First wash the apple. Next completely peel the apple. Cut the apple around the core and then cut the pieces into thin slices. Next arrange the slices in your microwave safe dish.

Apple Crisp Crumb Topping

Now I make the crumb topping. Put 1 1/2 tablespoons of self rising flour into a bowl. Next add 3 tablespoons of old fashioned oats. Next cut 1 tablespoon of butter and put it into the bowl. Add 2 heaping tablespoons of brown sugar. Next sprinkle some cinnamon.

Mix these ingredients until you get a good texture for the crumb topping. Sometimes you need to get dirty and use your hand to mix in the butter.

Combine Ingredients and Heat

Now, spread the crumb mixture over the apple. Microwave the dish for 2 1/2 minutes on high. When it's done, serve and enjoy.
