Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Toss the apple slices, cranberries, flour, sugar, cinnamon, orange zest, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and maple syrup together in a large bowl.
To make the topping, mix the flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, salt and butter together in a bowl. Use a fork or your hands to break the butter up into small pieces. Add the nuts and mix until combined.
Spray a 13x9-inch rectangular or 15-inch oval baking dish with cooking spray and pour the apple mixture into the dish. Spread the topping evenly over the fruit.
Place the dish on a baking sheet (to catch any drippings) and bake in the oven until it is bubbly and the apples are tender, 55-60 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.

Notes

This healthy apple cranberry crisp is also delicious for breakfast topped with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
You can prepare the apple cranberry crisp a day in advance, cover it, and store it in the refrigerator. You can also freeze the unbaked crisp for up to 3 months. Allow the frozen crisp to defrost in the fridge overnight before baking.
