Feel like having an oatmeal cookie? Feel like having an apple crisp? Now you can have both with every bite of this warm sweet Oatmeal Cookie Apple Crisp! Apple slices and juicy dried cranberries are sweetened and spiced with sugars and cinnamon that create a fabulously delicious syrupy sauce under the crisp and buttery oatmeal cookie topping. Stir in almonds that toast while baking in the oven and finish it off with a sprinkle of confectioners’ sugar and it doesn’t get much better than this….well, except maybe if you top it with whipped cream or ice cream, oh yes, that would be even better!
