Ready In:: 1hr
Ingredients:: 9
Serves:: 4

ingredients

³⁄₄ cup oats
³⁄₄ cup flour
²⁄₃ cup light brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch salt
¹⁄₂ cup cold unsalted butter, diced
4 braeburn apples or 4 fuji apples
4 teaspoons honey

directions

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl with cold butter.
Mix with hands until mixture forms small clumps and appears sandy.
Refrigerate.
Cut a small layer off the bottom of the apples to create a level surface.
Cut a cone out of the top of the apple, removing about an inch of the core and discard the top (this is similar to cutting the top of a pumpkin).
With a melon baller, remove the remaining core and seeds but do not puncture the base.
Place the apples in a pie dish, making sure the apples do not touch.
Fill each apple with a teaspoon of honey.
Spoon in oat mixture, packing lightly until overflowing slightly.
Bake in the oven at 350°F on the middle or top rack for 40 minutes or until a knife can stick in the side of the apple with little effort.
Let stand ten minutes before serving.

I have not made this myself (yet), but a friend of mine has... very yummy! Hopefully it will still be a 5 star recipe in my book after making it myself. :) Update: I still think this is yummy, but after having made it myself, I do prefer to make and eat regular apple crisp.

I have been married to my amazing husband for 8 wonderful years. We added a baby boy to the mix in March '08 with another just added March '10. We have two adorable rescue dogs, a chihuahua/min pin mix and a yorkie/westie mix. I have been an ovo-lacto vegetarian for 14 years. After moving to our fourth state in a year, we have finally settled in Texas. I don't know how I like all the rain and the human-sized bugs, but we really enjoy the area we have chosen to live in. Being a vegetarian in this part of the country is HARD. No one quite gets it. I love testing my zaar recipes on DH. When he loves something he exclaims, Where did you get this recipe?!? and of course, my answer is always the same. <img src=http://www.enviro-tote.com/imagesNew/stockart/bannerVeggie.gif alt= /> My ratings system: 5***** I would glady serve this to guests, or make it and secretly eat it all by myself. 4**** Great recipe. Liked enough to print out and place in my permanent cookbook. 3*** Recipe not quite for me, but others might like it. Could be more to my liking with a few modifications. 2** Didn't like. Possible ingredient errors in recipe. Probably wouldn't use again. 1* Really didn't like. Would never use again. #NOTE# If I review any recipes containing meat, it is a recipe I prepared and DH reviewed. <img src=http://www.enviro-tote.com/imagesNew/stockart/bannerVeggie.gif alt= /> Little Italy, San Diego <img src=http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e342/hadice/Cool/LittleItaly.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/berriesblinkie.gif alt= /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/untitled_1.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/KBparticipation.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3316/3345270671_dd30334798.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/AMpageSticker.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/Aug09PaperSwapSticker.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif alt= /> <img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/my3chefs2009final-1.jpg alt= />
