Treat yourself to the ultimate comfort dessert with this **Instant Oatmeal Apple Crisp**, a quick and easy twist on a classic favorite. Bursting with warm, spiced apples and a buttery, golden oatmeal crumble, this recipe takes just 10 minutes to prep thanks to the use of flavored instant oatmeal packets like apple cinnamon or maple brown sugar. The baked apples, coated with lemon juice, sugar, and cinnamon, perfectly balance sweet and tangy flavors, while the crumbled topping adds a satisfying crunch. Ready in under 30 minutes, this cozy dessert is perfect for weeknight cravings or an impromptu gathering. Serve it warm with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an irresistible treat!
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a small baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches).
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, lemon juice, sugar, and ground cinnamon. Toss until the apples are evenly coated, then transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
In a separate bowl, mix the instant oatmeal packets, flour, and brown sugar (if using). Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the oatmeal mixture evenly over the apples, covering them completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Allow the apple crisp to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
