  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • - FOR APPLE MIXTURE -
  • 6 medium apples, peeled, quartered, and sliced 1/4-inch thick

Cooking Instructions

Before You Start: The streusel can be made up ahead of time and frozen.  It will make more than you need for this recipe.  Another great idea is to use a couple different kinds of baking apples, as they will each lend their own flavors and nuances to the dish.

Step 1: For the Streusel: In a large bowl, combine the streusel topping ingredients.  Crumble together until well combined.  Set aside.

Step 2: For the Apple Crisp: In another bowl, combine apple mixture ingredients.

Step 3: Pour the apple mixture into a greased 8-inch-square baking dish.  Top with a generous amount of the streusel topping.  Place on the wire rack set on position 2.  (If you are cooking in a conventional oven, place the prepared baking dish on the lowest rack.)

Step 4: Turn on the convection steam oven by selecting Auto Steam Bake Mode set to 345 degrees F.  (If you are cooking in a conventional oven, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.)

Step 5: Bake until golden brown & bubbly, approximately 45 minutes.  (If you are cooking in a conventional oven, bake for 35 minutes then check again every 5-8 minutes until golden brown & bubble).
