Mini Cranberry Apple Crisps
These mini cranberry apple crisps were super easy to make and made my entire house smell incredible! I’ve been thinking about different types of recipes for this years Thanksgiving and decided to try making these mini crisps with a combination of fresh cranberries, crisp apples and cinnamon. My entire family thought these little crisps were so delicious and paired very nicely with vanilla ice cream. I have a feeling these little beauties may show up on our Thanksgiving table this year.
How to Make Mini Cranberry Apple Crisps
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray four large or 8 small baking dishes or ramekins with a bit of cooking spray and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
In a bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, candied pecans, flour, melted butter, and cinnamon together and mix very well; set aside.
In another bowl, add the diced apples, fresh cranberries, sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Toss until all the apples and cranberries are completely coated and no sugar is left in the bottom of the bowl. Divide the fruit mixture evenly between mini baking dishes.
Sprinkle the oat and pecan mixture evenly over each dish.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is tender. Allow them to cool for 10 minutes prior to serving as is or with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!

Those crisps are simply Fall PERFECT! I still haven’t bought any cranberry yet…need to get some to make this delicious crisp.
Delicious dessert. Like the addition of cranberries.
-This isn’t that dissimilar to my Chipmunk Pie; cranberries and granny smith apples are involved. They are a great combination! Yours are beautiful in the single serve dishes, Pam.
I love the idea of these as a Thanksgiving dessert, especially with a scoop of ice cream on top!
I need to show this to Bev as an alternative to apple pie.
