Pampered Chef Style Apple Crisp (For Microwave or Oven) image

This is one of the recipes that was served at the very first Pampered Chef party I attended, back in 1994. It is a very easy recipe (the hardest part is prepping the apple slices) and can be made in either microwave or the oven. I have made it both ways and prefer the oven version, but it is awfully nice that this can also be tossed into the microwave for a last minute dessert on busy nights. The demonstrator had a handy tip for the apples: After she ran them through the apple peeler/slicer gizmo they sell, she dropped them into a bowl filled with a can of lemon-lime soda (like Sprite) - and then drained them and patted them dry before using in this recipe. This way the apples didn't turn all sludgy brown before she was ready to demonstrate the recipe itself. I am allowing a large amount of prep time for those of you who don't own one of the PC apple gizmos - once your apples are ready, it only takes about 5 minutes to prepare the crisp for baking.

This apple crisp is a great way to use up leftover pie crust. I had a leftover pie crust from a pie I made the week before and I used it to make this apple crisp. It turned out great.

I made this apple crisp in the microwave and it turned out great. It was just as good as the apple crisp I've made in the oven. I will definitely be making this again in the microwave.

This apple crisp is a great way to use up leftover apples. I had a bunch of apples that were about to go bad, so I made this apple crisp and it turned out great. The apples were perfectly tender and the topping was crispy and flavorful.
