After my\u00a0<\/span>(plain-looking) chopped\u00a0<\/span>apple top cooled,<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

and got unexpected great taste, and * health benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For the ultimate treat, top warm slices
\nwith whipped coconut cream or ice cream!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

(I love recipes like\u00a0<\/span>this that say: Do not Mix too mu<\/em>ch<\/strong>).<\/span><\/p>\n

\n1-1\/2 cups oat flour

3 – Top the oil\/sugar with a layer of fruit. *(See fruit options)<\/span><\/p>\n

\nand bake it.<\/span><\/p>\n

My baking pan of choice for\u00a0appearance is
\na standard size bundt pan.\u00a0<\/span>But here I used 2
\nsmall (7″) foil ring pans.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

(I love recipes like\u00a0<\/span>this that say: Do not Mix too mu<\/em>ch<\/strong>).<\/span><\/p>\n

Here I used a 13″ rectangular pan.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Fruit options<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I sprinkled the layer of oil and sugar with 3\/4 tsp cinnamon
\nand 3 med. (peeled, cored) apples\u00a0lightly chopped in\u00a0my food
\nprocessor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
