Ingredients
    For the filling
  • About 20 -25 strawberries (remove the stalk & chop roughly into chunks)
  • 2 apples (peel, core & chop into chunks)
  • a pinch of cinnamon powder
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons water
  • For the topping
  • 1/2 cup oats (i used quaker)
  • 1/2 cup or a little less plain flour
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • To serve
  • Vanilla ice cream or cream (optional)
Instructions
    For the filling
  1. Cook all the ingredients under filling till the fruits are soft but not mushy. This will take about 5-7 mins. You do not need to add much water as the strawberries will leave their juices giving it a nice juicy texture. I added a tad more water than I mentioned above as I like it a bit moist & saucy!
  2. Transfer the filling onto a greased oven proof dish to form the bottom layer.
  3. For the topping
  4. In a wide bowl add in the flour, oats, brown sugar & mix lightly. Add the butter & mix lightly till they resemble bread crumbs.
  5. Proceed
  6. Top the filling with the oats topping and press gently so that the top is neat and even.
  7. Bake in a pre - heated oven @ 180 C for 25 mins - the top is firm & slightly brown & the filling is bubbly.
  8. Serve warm with some vanilla ice cream.
