by Kara Kimbrough
4 medium Granny Smith apples, sliced into thin pieces
1 small lemon
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup butter or butter substitute, softened
1 tablespoon of low-fat milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
​
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray 8-inch square glass baking dish with non-stick spray. Grate 1/2 teaspoon of the lemon peel and squeeze two tablespoons of lemon juice. Stir and combine peel and juice with sliced apples in the baking dish.
In a separate bowl, stir remaining ingredients until well mixed; sprinkle over apples. If mixture is too dry, add a little more milk.
Bake 30 minutes or until topping is golden brown and apples are tender.
Recipe doubles easily.
