My Favorite Weight Watchers Dessert Recipes

As a WW Lifetime member who is maintaining a 110+ pound weight loss, I’m always on the lookout for healthy, easy dessert recipes that are low in Weight Watchers points.

One of my favorite things about this recipe is the generous serving size. This dessert is bakes in an 8×8 pan and each serving is 1/4 of the pan. If you love apple pie, you’ll love this recipe and it’s so much healthier, too.

Yes, you get all of that delicious goodness for just a few points. (I don’t know about you, but I get tired of wimpy dessert recipes that are high in points for just a few bites! No worries of that happening with this recipe.)

Plus, this apple crisp made with instant oatmeal is quick and easy to put together because it calls for packets of oatmeal.

The original recipe calls for Weight Watchers oatmeal packets, but you can use another brand as long as they are low-sugar or weight-control. A variety of oatmeal flavors work too, like maple brown sugar, cinnamon sugar, or cinnamon roll flavored oatmeal, so feel free to use what your store has available.

I also provide directions for making this recipe from traditional rolled oats, in case you don’t have access to prepared oatmeal.

Weight Watchers Low Point Apple Crisp Recipe (Just 3 Easy Steps with Photos!)

Follow these instructions for a delicious apple crisp is quick and easy to make.

Step 1: Gather ingredients & prepare apples.

Preheat the oven and spray an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish with cooking spray.

This recipe calls for basic ingredients you probably have on hand. Use low-sugar oatmeal, Weight Watchers brand or another that is lower in calories and sugar. Note the instructions below if you don’t have any packets of oatmeal on hand.

Slice the apples. You can remove the skin or leave it on, based on what you and your family prefer. Our family prefers this recipe with the skin removed.

Cut apples and place in greased baking dish. We left the apple skins on, but you can remove them depending on your preference.

Step 2: Layer ingredients in baking dish.

The oatmeal gives this dessert that wonderful crispy top, yet remains low in Weight Watchers points.

Pour 8oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7 Up over apples and oatmeal. Spray with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter or butter-flavored cooking spray.

Step 3: Bake & Serve

Bake in 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. Finally, you can carefully broil the top for 1-2 minutes to crisp the oatmeal so it’s golden brown, if desired.

A serving is 1/4 of the pan, which is a really generous serving size. This is so yummy for a fall or holiday dessert, especially fresh from the oven.

Enjoy this delicious treat guilt-free.
