This year I’ve gotten in the Thanksgiving spirit a tad early. For no real reason, I pulled together a mini pre-Thanksgiving dinner for the family. We did a turkey roast, the gravy, mashed potatoes, buttered corn, stuffing and my all time favorite, cranberry crisp.
For years I’ve been trying to recreate that yummy little dish of cranberry-apple dessert that comes in the Swanson Turkey TV Dinners. I’m not quite there yet but this is a very close and I made it even better with a crunchy topping.
Inside this dish you’ll find warm cranberries with apples, a hint of citrus and all topped off with a sweet and crunchy oatmeal crisp.

I looked everywhere for a good cranberry Apple recipe for thanksgiving, I found this and thought it looked easy enough, and tasty enough, and it was! Absolutely delicious, even my non cranberry liking husband loved it! Can’t wait to make it for Christmas! I especially liked the leftovers because the topping wasn’t as crunchy. I think I’ll make it on Christmas eve and pop it in the oven to heat it up Christmas day.
