Snickerdoodle Apple Crisp
The chopped bar melts into the oats in the oven and becomes the crumble topping — cinnamon on cinnamon. Working with the bars: Warm to soften. Gentle heat (a low oven, a skillet's last minute, a hot marshmallow) turns the bar fudgy and spreadable — that's the tallow doing its job.
Nutrition per serving
Ingredients
- 2 medium apples (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith), sliced
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp cinnamon + a squeeze of lemon
- Topping: 1 Snickerdoodle bar chopped small, ¼ cup certified GF oats, 2 tbsp chopped pecans, 1 tbsp melted butter, pinch of salt
- Plain Greek yogurt or vanilla ice cream, to serve
Method
- 1
Heat the oven to 350°F. Sauté the apples in butter with the maple, cinnamon, and lemon for 5–6 minutes until just tender. Divide between two ramekins (or leave in a small oven-safe skillet).
- 2
Toss the topping ingredients together and scatter over the apples.
- 3
Bake 12–15 minutes until golden and bubbling at the edges — the tallow in the bar binds the oats into proper crumble clusters.

Rest 5 minutes, then top with a spoonful of Greek yogurt.
