Low Carb High Protein Apple Betty / Crisp

Anyone have a recipe for this?

I have a ton of apples around the house and want to use them up - but worry so much about keep the carbs down and the protein up.

Any help would be appreciated!

Not a recipe but some ideas. Have you thought about using almond flour for the flour, splenda for the sugars, and adding protein powder to the topping and filling? I try to sneak in protein powder wherever I can without affecting the taste. If you can stand the protein flavor then this shouldn't be a problem. Hope these tips help. Christine (internetnut) 

Thanks for the idea on adding protein powder to the topping - I thought about that but worry as many whey proteins don't do well when heated.

So welcome! I bake with it and it does just fine. I've only had problems with adding my protein powder to my coffee reheated in the micro. It was not pretty glumpy and gross. I've even used the cheap walmart protein powder for baking. Hope that helps! Christine (internetnut)   

Here is a recipe that I copied and pasted in the past from one of the OH forums. Hope it helps.

filling: 2 cups apples sliced 1/3 cup splenda, fill 1/2 ways with regular splenda and then fill remainder with brown sugar splenda 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1/2 tsp cinn mix well and spread in 9 x 9 pan topping: 1/2 cup whole grain pancake mix (can use reg flour or almond flour as well) 1/2 cup oatmeal 1/8 cup brown sugar splenda 1/2 cup melted butter 1/2 cup finely chopeed walnuts or pecans (optional) mix until crumbly, adding more oatmeal if needed.  Sprinkle over apples. bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes or until topping is browned. Can also double recipe for 9 x 13 pan. I would add in the protein powder to the topping ingredients. Diana

I made a peach crisp what was great. The topping was :

1 package SF butterscotch pudding,
1 cup old fashioned oats
1/4 cup Splenda
3 tablespoons butter

mix with a for****il crumbly. sprinkle on top of the fruit that I had sweetend with 1/4 c. Splenda and flavored with 2 T. sf gingerbread DaVinci syrup. bake 375 for about 35-45 minutes depending on the firmness of the fruit.

How many peaches did you use? Thanks christine (internetnut)

Great I'll make a note of that! Thanks christine (internetnut)
