Directions 

Apple Filling:

• Peel and core the apple, then cut into bite-sized chunks. 
• Add apples to mug or bowl and toss with cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon, sugar (if using) and flour. 

Crisp Topping:

• Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave for 15 seconds
• Mix in butter with brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, and nutmeg
  

1. Layer half the apple filling in a mug, then top with half the crisp mixture
   
2. Pour the rest of the apples on top and top with the remaining crisp mixture
   
3. Cook in the microwave for 2 ½ minute or until apples are tender and the crisp topping is bubbling
   
4. Take it out, and cool for a few minutes and enjoy 

TIPS:  

• Use gluten-free flour and gluten-free oats to make it gluten-free 
• You can substitute the crisp topping by simply crumbling an apple cinnamon rice cake on top 
• If you like a more tart flavour, use granny smith or for a sweeter flavour, use golden delicious apples. These two apples can withstand heat well.
