This delicious fall dessert is easy to make and guaranteed to be enjoyed by all! I adore apple crisp and this recipe is similar, but you can cut them into bars once they cool.
Apple Crisp Bars
The bottom layer is a sweet oat cake and is followed by a mouthwatering layer of apples. I used Royal Gala apples in this recipe, but feel free to use whatever you have on hand. The topping is another layer of oats that creates a streusel-like topping.
I served mine with whipped cream because John ate all the vanilla ice cream. It would taste yummy with both!
Nothing says fall more than apples (and pumpkins), right? Enjoy it year round, but fall seems to be the time of year that we crave these kinds of desserts.
Craving more apple desserts? Great, because I have some for you. Try this Apple Crisp, Apple Raisin Cake, Apple Magic Dessert or Caramel Apple Cookies. You might also like this Apple Spice Cake, Apple Cake with Butterscotch Sauce or Caramel Apple Dump Cake.

Hi. Does it matter which type of oats? There are a few different kinds and I don’t know my oats well 🙂

I think it was rolled oats.
