Ingredients

  • 6 c. cored and peeled thick-sliced apples
  • 2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/2 c. old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3 Tbsp. whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 c. brown sugar
  • 1/4 c. finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 tsp. maple or vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 375° F.
  • Core and peel apples, slicing them into a medium-sized bowl. Add 1/2 cinnamon and 2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup to the bowl and mix well, until the cinnamon and maple syrup are distributed evenly around the apple slices.
  • Pour prepared apple slices into an 8 X 8 baking dish/pan.
  • Prepare topping by stirring together the oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, walnuts, and 1 tsp. cinnamon. With a pastry cutter, cut butter and maple/vanilla extract into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles very coarse crumbs.
  • Sprinkle topping evenly over the apple slices.
  • Bake 40-45 minutes or until apples are tender and topping is golden.
