An eggnog sauce gives this crunchy oat-topped crisp a distinctive flavor. The apples and cranberries make it a natural for autumn celebrations and holiday meals. —Mary Lou Timpson, Centennial Park, Arizona

This recipe is fantastic! Normally, I am not a big fan of cranberries, but the combination of flavors in this recipe adds just enough sweetness to overpower the most of the tartness of the berries. The eggnog sauce is festive, and really yummy, but is not required to make the crisp a hit at your next holiday gathering. Those looking to cut a few calories can skip the sauce and still greatly enjoy this cran-apple crisp. My whole family raves over this recipe, and this will be our third holiday season including it on our menu.
