Ingredients
APPLE FILLING: 4 cups peeled and sliced Honey Crisp Apple4 cups peeled and sliced Apple-Granny Smith Green 1/2 cup, packed Brown Sugar 1/3 cup Granulated Sugar 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt 1 tsp Cinnamon, ground 1/4 tsp Nutmeg, ground (freshly ground is best!) TOPPING:3/4 cup Dried Rolled Oats3/4 cup Unbleached White Whole Wheat Flour 1/2 cup loosely packed Brown Sugar 1/2 tsp Baking Powder 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt 3/4 cup, chopped Pecans 6 tbsp Butter, unsalted
Directions
Make the filling by peeling, coring and cutting apples. Cut in larger slices if you like it more fork tender than mushy.
Place half of the apples in a sauce pan and cook on medium heat for about 5-7 min to draw out the water. Strain and add to the uncooked apples. Mix with the apple filling ingredients in the recipe. Set aside.
Make the Topping:
Mix all ingredients together. Add the butter in chunks and mix it together so butter is well incorporated. It mixes well in food processor but if you do that leave the oats out and add them at the end. Do not process the oats.
Place about 2 TBSP raw oats on bottom of 9inch deep pie plate to absorb water from apples.
Add the apples to the pie plate and arrange so you push them down and compact them well so the top is nice and even.
Add the topping in large tablespoons and push the topping together and seal it all the way around and at the sides so it keeps all the moisture into the pie.
Place on parchment lined cookie sheet to catch juices as it cooks.
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes.
Cool before serving.
Sore in refrigerator without covering the top.
Place plastic wrap around the apple sides only. If you cover the top it will get mushy. No one likes mushy apple topping!

    I am wondering what you think of supplements to help speed up the weight loss? I found the below supplement and am wondering if it will help? Let me know what you think.

    Walnuts are great to use instead of Pecans too!
