For the fruit filling
- 4 apples peeled and cored
- 2 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon cardamom
- 2 tablespoon apple juice
For the oat topping
- 1.5 cups oats gluten free, if required
- 2 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
- ½ teaspoon cardamom
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 3 tablespoon coconut oil melted
- small pinch salt
Preheat the oven to 180C / 360F.
Scatter the apple slices into your ovenproof dish, drizzle with honey, pour over the apple juice and sprinkle over the cardamom.
Add all the ingredients for the oat topping to a bowl and stir well to combine. Spoon onto the fruit filling.
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Keep a watch after 20 minutes for any signs of burning. If the top is looking as though it could burn but the apples aren't softened, loosely place a piece of aluminium foil over the dish and bake until done.
- Slice the apples to the size of your preference. The smaller they are the more likely they will go gooey, so adjust size to the texture you like!
- Stir the oat toppings very thoroughly so the wet ingredients combine well with the dry.
- Watch for signs of burning in the last ten minutes as it can turn fast.
