Apple Crumble With Toasted Oat Topping Recipes

APPLE CRUMBLE WITH TOASTED-OAT TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350° F. Coat a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Combine the apples and applesauce in the prepared baking dish.
• In a small bowl, combine the oats, wheat germ, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the oil and butter. Mix with your fingers to form crumbs. Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the apples.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the apples are bubbling.

OATY APPLE CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Cook the apples with the caster sugar in a large pan, stirring occasionally - add a splash of water if they start to stick on the bottom. When just about tender and a bit saucy, stir in the sultanas or raisins and tip into 2 large ovenproof dishes.
• Melt the brown sugar, honey and butter together in a large pan. Off the heat, stir in the oats, flour, almonds and cinnamon until sticky and crumbly. Divide over the apples. To bake straight away, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 then bake for 40-50 mins until topping is golden and crisp. To freeze, wrap dishes well or freeze the fruit and crumble mixture in separate freezer bags if you don't have spare baking dishes. To cook from frozen, cover with foil and bake at 180C/160C fan/gas 4 for 1½ hrs, then turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 8 and bake for a further 45 mins, removing the foil for the last 15 mins.

APPLE-OATMEAL CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Arrange apple slices in ungreased 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon orange peel and the orange juice.
• In medium bowl, mix oats, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture looks like coarse meal. Sprinkle over apples.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender and topping is lightly browned. Spoon into dessert bowls; top each serving with 1 tablespoon whipped topping. Garnish with orange peel.
