This quick and easy instant pot apple crisp serves up all the good fall vibes, with just a portion of the calories and is sure to be a new favorite!
It’s only August 2nd, and I am already dreaming of Fall and the delicious treats that come with it. Sure, apple crisps can be enjoyed all year long, but something about this instant pot apple crisp recipe just makes me want to bundle up into sweats and lay by a fire.
We all say we love apple pies, but we also all secretly know what we actually love: the crumble crust on top! Cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, butter…does it really get any better? After licking our bowls of this dessert clean the other night, my husband said it all “that crumble part is THE BEST!”
Luckily, the base of this dessert is apples, water and cinnamon (hello ZERO POINT FOODS!) so we are able to use some points up on all the good stuff: the crumbles!

How to make this easy instant pot apple crisp

- Once all of the apples have been cut up, throw them into your Instant Pot.
- Add in 2 tsp of cinnamon, ½ tsp of nutmeg, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 2tsbp lemon juice and 1 cup of water. Stir everything together so the apples get nice and coated.
