By carvalhohm2

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 c all-purpose flour
• 3/4 c brown sugar
• 3/4 c butter, melted
• 3/4 c steel cut oats ( the large ones not instant)
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 2/3 c white sugar
• 3 Tbsp corn starch
• 1 1/3 c water ( cold)
• 4 c apple slices ( 1/2 sweet 1/2 tart)

Preparation

Step 1

1 Preheat oven to 350.

2 Combine butter, brown sugar, flour, oats and cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl. Stir until well combined. Set aside about 1 cup of oat mixture for topping.

3 For the crust, press rest of oat mixture into bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate.

4 Stir together cornstarch, cinnamon and sugar in the bottom of a large stock pot. Whisk in cold water. Bring to boil and cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in apples and vanilla.

5 Dump apple filling onto oatmeal crust. Press on remaining oatmeal topping. Press it firmly into the filling to keep it from sliding off when cooking and slicing.

6 Bake 45 minutes or until golden brown.

7 Let sit overnight to insure the best flavor
