I feel blessed to have the opportunity to bake this for the special ladies at the local homeless shelter. Try it with Honeycrisp apples, Golden Delicious or a blend of the two apple types. Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened |
1-1/2 cups packed brown sugar |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 cups old-fashioned oats |
filling: |
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
3 large honeycrisp or golden delicious apples, peeled and sliced (about 6 cups) |
3 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 tablespoon butter |
optional toppings: vanilla ice cream, caramel sundae syrup and salted pecans |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt until crumbly. Add flour and oats; mix well. Press 3 cups oat mixture onto the bottom of a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
2. In another bowl, mix the first five filling ingredients. Add apples and vanilla; toss to combine. Spoon over oat layer. Dot with butter; sprinkle with remaining oat mixture.
3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown and apples are tender. If desired, serve with toppings. Yield: 12 servings.
