Ingredients
3 6-ounce bags or 5 apples (about 4 ½ cups) Unpeeled apple slices or chunks
1 cup fresh cranberries
Fresh lemon juice (1 lemon, squeezed)

2 tablespoons Splenda Brown Sugar sweetener
1 cup Toasted oats (not instant or steel-cut)
2 tablespoons Reduced calorie margarine

Non-stick cooking spray
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix the cut apples, cranberries, lemon juice, ½ teaspoon cinnamon and dry pudding mix in a bowl. Pour the mixture into a glass dish or pie pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. “Cut” the margarine into the Splenda brown sugar, oats and ½ teaspoon cinnamon using a food processor or forks until the mixture looks like coarse meal. Scatter the dry mixture over the fruit. Lightly coat the top with cooking spray. Bake 35 minutes or until toasted and bubbly. Serve warm, if possible!
