from the cooks wishes


List of Ingredients

1/2 c. rolled oats
1 1/2 pint rinsed blueberries
1 pint sweet cherries or strawberries or raspberries, picked over + cleaned
1/4 c. frozen, unsweetened apple juice concentrate, thawed
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon;
2 tbsp. I can't believe its not butter light, cut into small pieces
6 tbsp. non fat plain yogurt, optional


Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350.
Place the oats on a baking sheet and toast them in oven for 15 minutes, shaking the pan once during baking. Set aside.
Leave oven on. Lightly butter an 8x8" baking pan.
Gently combine the berries in a bowl with the apple juice concentrate and spoon into the prepared pan.
Combine toasted oats and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over berries.
Dot butter substitute all over the top.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Cool to room temperature.
Serve with a dollop of yogurt on top.
Makes 6 servings.

*Note:
Apple juice concentrate has all the sweetness of apples with no sugar added.
For a tasty substitute, mashed ripe bananas also make an ideal sweetener.
When toasting oats, spread them in a single layer on an ample sized baking sheet.
