This Microwave Apple Crisp in a Mug is perfect for when you absolutely must have apple crisp, but only need one portion! I love this single serve apple crisp recipe that takes only minutes to make!
Microwave Apple Crisp in a Mug is the perfect single serving dessert recipe! Apple crisp is one of my favorite desserts and I love that I now have this easy mug cake recipe for whenever a sweet tooth craving strikes!
With fall weather here to stay, it is so nice to have a warm dessert in the evenings. I would honestly make apple crisp every single week if it didn’t involve peeling the apples! You only have to peel and slice one apple for this recipe, so it makes it a piece of cake, mug cake that is!
I have had fun coming up with new easy microwave mug cake recipes, but have been craving an apple version and knew I had to experiment a little until I found the perfect recipe! After a few tries, I have perfected these Mug Apple Crisps and love how they are like a little cup of fall, in one single serving!
I live in the mountains of PA and fall is in full swing here! Trips to the pumpkin patch and apple orchard and beautiful leaves on our mountain tops always remind me that this is my favorite time of the year. Not only is the weather beautiful, but you can’t beat fall foods! It is the season of comfort food and apples, and that is one of my favorite combinations! This Mug Apple Crisp Recipe is the perfect end to any fall evening!

Loved your recipe. I happened to have a bag of caramels, so I melted 4, with a splash of water, in the microwave for 1 minute and drizzled it on the top…so good!
I’m so glad you liked it!! It is one of my favorites!
