Apple Oatmeal Crumble

4 cups, peeled, cored and thinly sliced apples (from about 3 apples), such as Gala or Jonagold)

1 tablespoon fresh-squeezed lemon juice

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 cup quick-cooking oats

½ cup dark brown sugar

⅓ cup all-purpose unbleached flour

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch salt

2 tablespoons unsalted margarine (no trans fat), melted

Set the oven rack in the middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly spray the bottom and sides of a medium baking dish with vegetable oil.

In a medium mixing bowl stir together apples, lemon juice and sugar. Spread apples evenly into prepared pan; set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl combine oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt, stirring to combine. Sprinkle the oat mixture over the apples; drizzle melted margarine over the top.

Bake for 30 minutes, or until apples are tender but not mushy. Allow to cool slightly. Serve warm.

Serves six.
