Apple Crisp

About 10 apples
½ cup water
½ cup milled flax seed (optional, but it adds extra fiber)
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup of pure maple syrup or honey
6 packs of stevia*
½ cup butter (1 stick) softened
1½ cups oatmeal
½ cup whole grain flour
1 tsp. cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Peel and slice the apples.
Place in the bottom of a 9” by 13” casserole dish.
Pour the water over the top of the apples.
Next just combine the rest of the ingredients and crumble over the top of the apples.
Bake for about 40 minutes until the top is crisp.

* Stevia can be found at any health food store. I like it because; it does nothing to your blood sugar level. It is natural and has no negative side effects. I use this to sweeten tea and lemonade, also. If you do not have or want to try the stevia, you can use a whole cup of maple syrup or honey instead of the ½ cup, if you do this also add maybe 1/3 cup of flour to get the right consistency.
Hope you like it!
