Mama Frannie's Apple Crisp


Pre-heat oven to 350

You'll Need:

Six medium organic apples, such as Granny Smith or any red and green, as many oats as you'd like, Stevia, Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread or light olive oil, sea salt, lemon juice concentrate or fresh lemon, cinnamon, pumpkin spice, or Nutmeg. Some recipes require all-purpose flour, however, it's an extra-added, unnecessary step.

For the Filling:

Put a couple dabbles of Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread in the bottom of your oven dishware. 
In a separate bowl, mix the sliced apples, a splash of lemon juice concentrate, or squeeze an organic lemon across the sliced apples, (minus the seeds, of course) and Stevia (plant-based natural sweetener) to taste.

Mix these ingredients and then scoop into the dishware.
Julie, my cousin who's a chef, said if this filling is added to a pie crust, it becomes "Debbie's Dutch Apple Crisp." You can either purchase an already-made pie crust or make one yourself. I don't know how to make a pie crust and can't be bothered learning therefore, I purchased one at the 99 Cent Only Store!

For the Topping:

Put as many oats into a medium-sized bowl as you'd like for the top. Add either melted Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread or light olive oil to the oats. Add sea salt and Stevia to taste. Mix these together and put on the prepared apples. Sprinkle cinnamon, Nutmeg, or Pumpkin Spice on top for slight flavor and beautiful decoration.

Bake for an hour or until it's bubbling and you can't wait. Take it out of the oven immediately, scoop a large portion into a bowl and you may even top it with Tru Whip or a non-dairy frozen dessert.
