| Recipe: |
3-4 apples, halved and cored
3 T butter, softened or melted
2 T brown sugar
2 T splenda
1/2 t molasses (since I subbed some of the brown sugar for splenda)
a little bit of nutmeg and/or cinnamon (about 1/2 t max.)
1/2 c. oatmeal (uncooked)
1/2 c. nuts in small-ish pieces (I like mostly slivered toasted almonds with a few pecans, but go with what you like and/or have on hand)
Preheat oven to 375 F.
Mix topping together in a small bowl (everything except the apples). Place apple halves in baking dish. Divide topping evenly between apples. Add a little water to the bottom of the pan to prevent scorching.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake 25 minutes. Uncover the apples then bake another 20 to 30 minutes until the apples are soft and the topping has browned.
