Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h30m

Yield Makes: 16 squares

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for greasing
1 cup white whole-wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats
2/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch fine sea salt
1/2 cup apple butter
4 ounces dried apples
4 ounces dried cherries, golden raisins or other dried fruit
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • For the base and streusel topping: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom of an 8-inch-square baking pan.
  • Put the flour, oats, sugars, baking soda and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse 6 times, about 3 seconds per pulse, until some of the oatmeal is finely chopped and some still large or whole. Drizzle in the melted butter, toss with a fork and then pulse until the mixture comes together, about 8 times.
  • Press two-thirds of the oat mixture into the prepared pan. Squeeze spoonfuls of the remaining mixture in your palm to make chunks - some larger, some smaller - and place in a small bowl.
  • Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate both the base and the chunks for 30 minutes.
  • For the filling: Put the apple butter, dried fruit, cinnamon and 2 tablespoons water in the cleaned bowl of the food processor and pulse to a chunky paste. Spread the filling over the chilled base. Scatter the streusel topping over the filling, leaving some of the filling showing through. Bake until the streusel is toasty and crisp, about 30 minutes. Cool completely on a rack, about 2 hours, before slicing into 16 squares.

APPLE CRISP WITH OAT TOPPING



Apple Crisp with Oat Topping image

This is the best dessert for the early fall when the sweet and firm apples are just in season. Use the best quality cinnamon you can get and get it from a spice merchant or even a store where you can get it bulk; it does make a difference. Within ten minutes of going in the oven the scent will fill the house and neighbors you loaned things to years ago will return them just to invite themselves in and wonder aloud if there is any left (Note: there isn't). Optional accompaniments would be caramel sauce, ice cream, and whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh apples. Fresh apples will give your bars the best flavor. If you don't have fresh apples, you can use frozen or canned apples, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Peel and core your apples. This will help to ensure that your bars are evenly cooked.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice your apples. This will help to prevent them from browning.
  • Don't overcook your apples. Overcooked apples will be mushy and not very flavorful.
  • Use a combination of oats and flour in your crust. This will help to create a crust that is both crispy and tender.
  • Don't overmix your dough. Overmixing will make your crust tough.
  • Bake your bars until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let your bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Apple oat crumb bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for a party, potluck, or a simple snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dessert that is both delicious and satisfying. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give apple oat crumb bars a try.
