Yield: 1
Ingredients:
| ¾ cup (75g) old-fashioned oats |
| ¼ cup (30g) whole wheat flour or gluten-free* flour |
| 1 tsp ground cinnamon |
| 2 tbsp (30mL) pure maple syrup, room temperature |
| 1 ½ tbsp (21g) unsalted butter, melted |
| 6 cups (767g) diced red apple ((see Notes!)) |
| 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch |
| 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon |
| ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg |
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, and coat an 8”-square pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- To prepare the streusel topping, whisk together the oats, flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Make a well in the center. Pour in the maple syrup and melted butter. Stir until fully incorporated.
- To prepare the filling, toss the apples with the cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl until completely coated.
- Transfer the filling to the prepared pan, and gently press down with a spatula. Sprinkle evenly with the topping. (The topping tends to clump a lot, so break it up into really small pieces, about the size of miniature chocolate chips, to ensure it covers the apples.) Bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes or until the apples are fork tender. Cool completely to room temperature; then refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving to allow the juices to fully thicken.
