Apple Bake

Serves 6 generous portions

Pan - I use a corning ware type pan so it is a thicker pan than the normal 9x13 tin or glass.   It is probably closer to an 8x10 size.

Crust

1 cup flour

2 Tablespoons sugar

1 Tsp salt

1/2 cup olive oil

4 Tablespoons milk or nut milk

In a small bowl combined the flour, sugar, and salt.  mix.  Add olive oil and milk.  mix.  It will be oily.  Pat into the pan.  

Crumble

2 tsp cinnamon

2/3 cup sugar

8 Tablespoons olive oil

1 1/3 cup flour

Combine the cinnamon, sugar, oil, and flour.  Mix together.  Put half the mixture onto the crust.  Hold the other half until later.

Apples

4 apples sliced thin

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tablespoon sugar

Mix together so apple slices are covered with cinnamon and sugar.  Place on the crust. 

Put the rest of the crumble on top of the apples.

Bake for 1 hour at 350.
