Ingredients

Filling

• 1½ pounds apples, peeled and sliced (5 cups)
• 1 cup cranberries, fresh or frozen
• ⅓ cup granulated sugar

Topping

• ⅔ cup whole-wheat flour
• ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)
• ½ cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Pinch of salt
• 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 3 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate
• 1 tablespoon chopped almonds or walnuts

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat an 8-inch-square baking dish (or similar 1½- to 2-quart dish) with cooking spray.
2. To prepare filling, combine apples, cranberries and granulated sugar in a large bowl; toss to coat. Place the filling in the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil. Bake for 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, make topping. Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl with a fork. Add butter and blend with a pastry blender or your fingertips. Add oil and stir to coat. Add orange juice concentrate and blend with your fingertips until the dry ingredients are moistened.
4. After 20 minutes, stir the fruit filling and sprinkle the topping evenly over it. Sprinkle with almonds (or walnuts). Bake, uncovered, until the fruit is bubbly and tender and the topping is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
