—by Deanna Ibbitson

Serves 4-6

Filling:

• 4 large apples, peeled, cored and sliced
• 8-10 prune plums, sliced in half and pitted
• 2 tbsp sugar (optional)

Crumble:

• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup flour (any type)
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• pinch of salt (if using olive oil or unsalted butter)
• 4 tbsp butter or olive oil
• 2 tbsp each: raisins, chopped nuts, flax seeds (optional)

Directions

Put apples and plums into an appropriately sized baking dish. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp of sugar if desired. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, raisins, nuts and flax seeds. Mix in the butter or oil. Spoon the mixture over the fruit. Bake at 350°F about 40-50 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and soft and the topping is golden brown.
