This is a delicious, easy, and quick alternative to a traditional apple pie! This recipe came from a book titled "Totally Apples Cookbook". Serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you wish and you have yourself a yummy dessert or snack for any time of day! Quick note, the topping isn't crunchy if you have leftovers and reheat in the microwave, but it is still great!

SERVES 4 -6 , 1 "pie" (change servings and units)

Ingredients

4 granny smith apples, peeled and cored
1 tablespoon lemon juice, could also use brandy if desired
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup oatmeal

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch salt
5 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup pecans, may use other favorite nut

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2
Lightly butter round pie plate or cake pan.
3
Slice each apple into quarters, and then each quarter into thirds so you have nice size slices.

Place the apples in a bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice (or brandy) and set aside.
5
In another bowl, mix flour, oatmeal, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

Pinching or rubbing with fingers, work the butter into the dry mixture until crumbly mixture is formed.
