Breakfast!!!!


Have to have BREAKFAST!!  Just one of the things I love.  I make a big batch of this stuff.  Freeze some too.  Throw a little 0% greek yogurt and some cinnamon on this baby and you have the best breakfast EVER!!

Ingredients
• 1 lb / 454 g cooking apples
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 cup / 240 ml fresh blackberries (I get the frozen bumbleberry mix at Superstore)
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml whole-wheat flour
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml rolled oats
• 3 Tbsp / 45 ml canola oil (extra may be needed)
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml pitted dates, finely chopped (this gives you the sweet and boy it's good)
• 1/4 cup / 60 ml unsalted sunflower seeds
• Olive oil cooking spray

Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F / 204°C. Prepare an ovenproof dish by lightly coating it with olive oil cooking spray.
  2. Core and slice the unpeeled apples and sprinkle with lemon juice.
  3. Place in a medium saucepan with the berries.
  4. Cook over medium-low heat and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. Pour cooked fruit into baking dish.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix the flour and oats. Rub in the oil and stir until mixture resembles crumbs. You may need to add more canola oil until desired texture is reached. Stir in dates and sunflower seeds. Sprinkle crumbly mixture over fruit.
Bake in oven for 25 minutes.
