This is a healthy alternative to an apple crisp and is just as yummy as the real thing! However, I used granny smith apples and would recommend using a different kind of apple if you don't want a tart dessert. It was still delicious but definitely had a bite to it!

http://goodthingscatered.blogspot.com/2008/02/apple-crunch.html
Ingredients
4 large apples
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
4 Tbsp butter (cold)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp vanilla
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray an 8x8 baking dish with baking spray. Peel, core, and dice apples into 1/2-inch pieces. Spread apples evenly in baking dish.
In medium bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cut butter into small pieces and add to dry ingredients along with the vanilla. With pastry blender, cut butter into dry ingredients until all butter is about the size of a small pea. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over apples.
Place baking dish in oven and bake for 55-60 minutes or until apples have cooked down and begun to caramelize. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Yes I added ice cream to a healthy dessert! lol.
