This is a healthy alternative to fruit pie made with traditional pie crust. The oatmeal is in the bottom, the recipe is unique, unlike a cobbler or crisp. It has minimal fat, sugar, and flour. The oatmeal gives a nutty taste. This is not tremendously sweet. The recipe originated with my mom. I always use Macintosh apples because they are most juicy and I like a slight tart taste.
