Skillet Apple Crisp (sugar-free)



February 25, 2019

This is one of my go-to desserts because I can throw it together easily in my cast iron skillet, or I can double the recipe and make it for a large crowd without any hassle. It is sugar-free and can also be made grain-free if you prefer. I have been making this recipe for years, and now it's time to put it into writing, so enjoy every bite of this!
