Ingredients:
6 cups apples, peeled and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2/3 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup rolled oats, old-fashion
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons apple juice, concentrate, thawed
1/3 cup walnuts, chopped
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375. Coat an 8-inch square 9or 2-quart) deep baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Combine apples with granulated sugar, lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Toss to mix. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, combine whole-wheat flour, oats, brown sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a medium bowl. Mix to blend. Using your fingers (or a fork or pastry blender), cut in butter until evenly distributed and there are no chunks. Stir in oil, apple juice concentrate and nuts; toss well until evenly moistened and clumpy.
4. Remove the foil from the baking dish and scatter the topping evenly over the apples. Bake uncovered until the topping has browned and the fruit is soft and bubbling, about 30 minutes more. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
5. Apple choices: Crisp tart, such as McIntosh, Empire, Granny Smith or Cortland
