OATMEAL FRUIT CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Slice apples in large greased large casserole dish. You can leave them unpeeled or peeled as you wish.
• Combine dry ingredients, then cut in margarine until crumbly. Put over fruit and cook for approximately 35 to 45 minutes until fruit is cooked through. Check with a knife - if the fruit is soft and the oatmeal crisp is brown, it is done.
• You can substitue diced rhubarb, pears, berries like saskatoons or blueberries for part or all of the apples. You may want to sprinkle a bit of cornstarch over top before you put the oatmeal over top to thicken the fruit as it cooks. Apples don't need thickening, but berries and pears are juicier.
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
