Strawberry & Green Apple Crisp

A healthy, but really good option for an easy weeknight dessert.  The mix of sweet fresh strawberries and tart Granny Smith apples, with a oatmeal brown sugar crumble will make this dessert tickle your taste buds. I promise.
4 c. thinly sliced Granny Smith apples
1 c. thickly sliced strawberries
3/4 c. oats
1 c. brown sugar
3/4 c. whole wheat flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
5 TBS. butter, nearly melted
2 TBS. chopped walnuts (optional)
Place cut fruit in a greased 8x8 glass baking dish.  Mix dry ingredients, pouring nearly melted butter over mixture and work through with fork until the mixture becomes crumbly. Top with walnuts if desired.  Pour mixture over fruit and spread evenly.  Bake at 375 for 35 minutes. Serve warm.

  2. I think it might get a bit soggy if you chop the strawberries, but I think it would be fabulous (although very sweet, the green apples add a nice tart for the sweet). I would leave the strawberries whole, or just slice in half. Let me know if you try it!

Thanks for your comment!

Nothing would be more tiresome than eating and drinking if God had not made them a pleasure as well as a necessity.
