- I think every apple crisp recipe I've ever seen uses oatmeal, although my
- eleven-year-old made the following recipe and substitued rye meal, and it
- tasted just fine.
-
- The recipe is from "Dollar a Day Cookbook" by Ruth and Bill Kaysing (1977,
- Chronicle Books, San Fransisco). (I also recommend the more complicated
- recipe found in the Moosewood Cookbook.) If you want to simplify this recipe
- further, omit the wheat germ, bran, and rice flour. Instead just add more
- oats, and substitute in some wheat flour.

- ___________
- APPLE CRISP
- -----------
-
- A worldwide favorite that appears in the culinary records of many
- cultures. Try it this way.
-
- 8 large apples <-------- Golden Delicious are good; Northern Spy are
- terriffic. Or use any apple you would put in a pie.
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup wheat germ
- 1/3 cup fresh bran
- 1/4 cup brown rice flour
- 1/4 cup ground dried dates
- 1/4 cup oil or melted butter
-
- Wash, core and slice 8 large apples. Mix the honey, lemon juice, and
- cinnamon, and add them to the apples. Toss to mix and coat. Place the
- mixture in a buttered baking dish and add a topping made of the remaining
- ingredients, mixed well and sprinkled over the apples to cover.
-
- Bake in a preheated oven at about 325 degrees for 35 to 45 minutes, or
- until the apples are tender. Remove and see how much cooling time you can
- allow before it's totally devoured by apple bandits. Serves 6 normal
- people, or 2 apple bandits!
