(I use my Kitchenaid mixer for this)

MIX flour, oats and remaining sugar in medium bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in nuts. Sprinkle over fruit.

(I buy whatever dried berries I can find, these ones are from Aldi)

(Topped with dry mixture and apples, ready to be baked!)

BAKE 35 to 40 min. or until heated through.

My tips:

I have been making Sweet Potato Crisp for years now and it is always a hit.  I will say that if you are against canned sweet potatoes (yams) don’t let that stop you from making this, no one can tell!  I also improvise and use what ever apple, dried berries, and cream cheese brand I have on hand.  For bigger dinners, I will usually double this recipe and put it in a 9×13 pan.  It is like a creamy sweet potato dish and feel free to use as much apples, Cinnamon and nuts as you’d like.  Since my little guy has a peanut allergy, I don’t make it with nuts anymore, and it tastes just as good!
