In this paper, we proposed a novel analytical technique for one-dimensional fractional heat equations with time fractional derivatives subjected to the appropriate initial condition. This new analytical technique, namely multistep reduced differential transformation method (MRDTM), is a simple amendment of the reduced differential transformation method, in which it is treated as an algorithm in a sequence of small intervals, in order to hold out accurate approximate solutions over a longer time frame compared to the traditional RDTM. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense, while the behavior of solutions for different values of fractional order α compared with exact solutions is shown graphically. The analysis is accompanied by four test examples to demonstrate that the proposed approach is reliable, fully compatible with the complexity of these equations, and can be strongly employed for many other nonlinear problems in fractional calculus.
