How to Store Baked Apple Crisp

Fridge: Stores up to 5 days in the fridge.

Option 1: Let it cool once out of the oven and store right in the baking dish. Just cover with some sort of wrap (I prefer beeswax wraps or reusable silicone covers to be more eco friendly, but plastic wrap or tinfoil will also work!)

Option 2: Store in a large airtight container or store in individual portions for a quick grab and go option!

Freezer: This recipe also freezes well. Freeze crisp up to 3 months. Add yogurt when serving.

Option 1: Store in a large airtight container or individual portions as noted above for fridge storage.

Options 2: Wrap individual portions loosely in parchment paper so they don’t stick . Store in large reusable ziploc-style storage bags.

Microwave: cover baked apple crisp and microwave in 30 second intervals until it is warmed through.
