Oatmeal Fruit Crisp Recipes

OATMEAL CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees; line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, mix butter, sugar, flour, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth; mix in rolled oats.
• Drop firmly packed teaspoons of dough, 2 inches apart, onto baking sheets. Bake until golden,rotating sheets halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on sheet 1 minute; with a very thin metal spatula, transfer to paper towels to cool completely.

APPLE OATMEAL CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square pan.
• In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, oats, flour and butter. Mix until crumbly. Place half of crumb mixture in pan. Spread the apples evenly over crumb mixture. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon and top with remaining crumb mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden brown.

OATMEAL FRUIT CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Slice apples in large greased large casserole dish. You can leave them unpeeled or peeled as you wish.
• Combine dry ingredients, then cut in margarine until crumbly. Put over fruit and cook for approximately 35 to 45 minutes until fruit is cooked through. Check with a knife - if the fruit is soft and the oatmeal crisp is brown, it is done.
• You can substitue diced rhubarb, pears, berries like saskatoons or blueberries for part or all of the apples. You may want to sprinkle a bit of cornstarch over top before you put the oatmeal over top to thicken the fruit as it cooks. Apples don't need thickening, but berries and pears are juicier.
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

OATMEAL-ALMOND CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk brown sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Mix in oats and almonds.
• Drop mixture by level tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Spray the underside of a metal spatula with nonstick cooking spray, and use to flatten cookies into 2 1/2-inch disks.
• Bake until golden, 14 to 16 minutes. Cool completely on baking sheets. (Handle with care; cookies are fragile.)

APPLE CRISP WITH OAT TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Toss apples with white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a medium bowl to coat; pour into a 9-inch square baking dish.
• Mix brown sugar, oats, flour, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a separate bowl. Use a pastry cutter or 2 forks to mash cold butter into the oats mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; spread over the apples to the edges of the baking dish. Pat the topping gently until even.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and sides are bubbling, about 40 minutes.
