Oatmeal Apple Dessert

"This is a healthy alternative to fruit pie made with traditional pie crust. The oatmeal is in the bottom, the recipe is unique, unlike a cobbler or crisp. It has minimal fat, sugar, and flour. The oatmeal gives a nutty taste. This is not tremendously sweet. The recipe originated with my mom. I always use Macintosh apples because they are most juicy and I like a slight tart taste."

We have a small kitchen garden and love eating fresh, and cooking healthy. Our three boys are all grown and out of the house so we can experiment with food all we want. They often call and ask how to cook stuff.
