Cranberry Apple Crisp Recipe

Here's a nice seasonal twist on apple crisp. Plump, fresh cranberries make a wonderful base for this low-fat dessert. Enjoy with fat-free whipped topping, some low fat custard sauce or some fat-free frozen yogurt.

Correction: Someone spotted a lack of cranberries in the instructions. They are added the same time as the apples. Apologies.
