Introduction
This is a traditional Mennonite dessert that I found in a box of paraphernalia from the St. Jacob's farmers market. I grow both ground cherries and grapes, so it seemed like a unique way to use them that wasn't jam!

Ingredients
-
1 cup ground cherries (I used the pineapple ground cherries I grew this year)
1 cup grapes (I used some Cabernet grapes we grew this year)
pinch each cinnamon and allspice
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/2 cup packed brown sugar, divided
1 unbaked 8" pie crust (I used the Potato Pie Crust from Vicki's Vegan Kitchen cookbook)
3 tbsp rolled oats (not instant)
1 tbsp Earth Balance buttery stick margarine or salted butter, cool but not cold
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Toss the ground cherries, grapes, spices, cornstarch and half the sugar in a bowl and pour into the crust.
Combine the remaining sugar, oats and butter in another dish, mixing with your fingers until crumbly.
Sprinkle over the fruit mixture and pat down.
Bake at 400F for 10 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350F and bake 20 minutes more.
