    Baked Apple Streusel

    Ingredients:

    • ½ cup oats
    • ½ cup all-purpose flour
    • ½ cup brown sugar
    • 6 tablespoons butter (cold, not room temp)
    • 1 drop Cinnamon Bark
    • 1 drop Ginger
    • 1 drop On Guard®
    • ½ cup dried fruit (dates, raisins, cranberries, cherries)
    • 4 large baking apples

     

    Heat oven to 350℉ and spray a pie pan or other oven-safe dish with nonstick spray. Combine oats, flour, and brown sugar in a bowl. Use a fork to cut in the butter until it is a crumbly mixture. Add essential oils and dried fruit and blend well, then refrigerate as you prepare the apples. Slice off a small portion of each apple so they can sit in the bottom of the baking dish. Core the apple without cutting all the way to the bottom. Spoon streusel mixture into each apple packing it down and allowing it to overflow. Bake at 350℉ for 40 minutes.
