Kittencal's Apple Crisp Dessert
This is a tried and true recipe that i developed, you will not find it anywhere else! It has a delicious cinnamon-oatmeal crumb mixture on the bottom then sprinkled on the top with the apples baked in the middle --- the oatmeal mixture *must* be made in two separate bowls, cooking time is estimated it will vary depending on what kind of apples you use and the size of the slices --- it is at it's best when eaten the same day it is made and served warm.
