Honey Oatmeal Apple Crisp

Submitted by Raelene

"My husband and I decided to make a lifestyle change which included eliminating sugar, white flour, processed foods etc., from our diet. I created this delicious and simple recipe to satisfy an occasional sweet tooth, also this dessert is ideal to serve to children as it is only sweetened with honey. If using organic apples you may choose to leave the peels on, also depending on the sweetness of the apples you use you may choose to decrease the amount of honey. To make a virtually fat free version, you can also eliminate the butter in the topping, I have tried this both ways and find that it turns out almost the same. I hope you enjoy!"
