Apple, Banana and Cranberry Crumble
This delightful crumble is oil-free, quick-to-prep, satisfying and truly delicious. It serves triple duty as a breakfast treat, healthful dessert or fruitful afternoon snack!
APPLE LAYER 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil (for coating casserole dish) 4 medium tart green and/or sweet red apples (cored and sliced (do not peel)) 4 heaping tablespoons sweetened dried cranberries 3 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup 1 rounded teaspoon ground cinnamon OAT LAYER 1 very large ripe banana (peeled (see note)) 1 tablespoon maple syrup (plus more for serving) 1 rounded teaspoon ground cinnamon 1¼ cups gluten-free rolled oats (quick cooking or old fashioned) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Lightly coat a 9 by 12-inch or similarly sized casserole dish, with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Put the apples in a medium-sized bowl. Add the cranberries, 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir the mixture with a large spoon to combine. Transfer to the prepared casserole dish.
Put the banana, 1 tablespoon maple syrup and 1 rounded teaspoon ground cinnamon into a medium-sized bowl. Mash together using a potato masher or large fork until almost smooth, allowing a few small chunks to remain. Add the rolled oats and mix with a large spoon to combine. Spread the banana/oat mixture over the apples in an even layer.
Cover and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the apples are soft. Uncover and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the topping is slightly crisp. Transfer the casserole to a wire rack, and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Spoon into shallow bowls and serve with maple syrup on the side, if desired. Tightly covered and stored in the refrigerator, the crumble will keep for 1 day.
Chef’s note: If you do not have a large banana, use 1½ medium ripe bananas, or 2 small ripe bananas.
