In a mug (or microwave-safe bowl), combine the filling ingredients: apple, 1 teaspoon Truvia Baking Blend, pinch of cinnamon and 1 teaspoon canola oil and mix well to coat the apple.
Microwave the apple mixture for 5 minutes on HIGH, or until the apple is tender. Remove from microwave and stir.

Recipe Notes
I was able to reduce this recipe by 3 SmartPoints by substituting canola oil for butter (also making this dessert dairy-free), reducing the total amount used and reducing the amount of flour used in the topping.The original recipe was a little too sweet for me with too much crumble topping. After making less topping and substituting Truvia for the white and brown sugars, I thought the sweetness level was much better and the apple mixture was better balanced with the topping and didn't get overwhelmed.Try making Cranberry Apple Crisp by mixing in some chopped dried cranberries with the apples before cooking.Serving size: 1 microwave apple crispClick here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.5*SmartPoints (Green plan)5*SmartPoints (Blue plan)5*SmartPoints (Purple plan)8*PointsPlus (Old plan)
