Something oaty for the lunch box this week and to take for an afternoon tea snack to visit a close friend. Blueberry and granny smith apples simply stewed and added to a easy slice base finished with a oaty crumble topping. You could change up the filling with what ever you wanted really, raspberries, boysenberries or keep it plain apple.
