Apple Oatmeal Crisps

This is a light and healthy dessert, best eaten with a dollop of ice-cream or even on its own.  It's more or less like my other recipe on apple raisin crumble.  Refrigerate leftovers and reheat before serving if desired.

Combine oil with sugar, add in flour, oats, almonds and raisins.  Spoon oatmeal mixture on top of the apple slices, sprinkle more oats and drizzle golden syrup before putting them into the oven.

Sour green apples can be transformed into a scrumptious sweet dessert, full of wholesome goodness!
