Default Baked cinnamon apples?

Anyone have a good recipe for this that is low G.I.? Similar to apple crisp?

I've had a major craving for that lately.

Thanks!

I use oats instead of white flour to make some desserts. If you buy a small food grinder you can make oat flour from basic quick oats. I have not found any good low GI substittue for brown sugar, but Splenda works well to sweeten most desserts.

Splenda makes a brown sugar substitute that is 1/2 Splenda and 1/2 brown sugar... and you only use 1/2 for what the recipe calls for. It isn't the greatest for us, but at least you are only getting 1/4 of the sugar intake. I haven't been able to find any other brown sugar substitutes, but I know they are out there somewhere.

Oh yeah, duh! Oats. Maybe sprinkle a teaspoon of that splenda brown sugar with my apples and cinnamon, and then sprinkle oats over the top, unprocessed though (low GI that way). I guess I could also add slivers of my fake margarine over the top to 'crisp' it. Any suggestions other than that to getting the crispness on top w/o the fat in margarine/butter?

How about one of the "I can't believe it's not butter" sprays? You could just spray a tiny bit on top. I think they make another non-fat brand of spray butter too?

Get involved in animal rescue. You won't be sorry. Your heart may break, there may be times when your eyes are red-rimmed for days. You may lose faith in the goodness of people, but your spirit will be renewed by the resilience of those you save. It isn't easy, but it's worth it. I promise you, you will be forever changed.
