hmmmm.... the butter or marge is the fat needed... don't think oil or lard will do you any favours here.Maybe use oats and honey instead?

would philidephia(sp) work?

maybe, it doesn't sound appetizing tho. Can't do a trip to the shops? or beg off a neigbour?

you really do need butter or marg sorry, at least 90gms.
Do you not have even a Tbsp butter or marg: You could then do a fruit sponge topping instead, or search recipes to see if there are any sponge type toppings without butter.

If you've already cooked the apples, just serve stewed apples and custard, cream, ice cream? If not you could do lovely baked apples?
