Baked Apple Crumb Dessert


Baked Apple Crumb (shared by Courtney)
 
1/4 cup egg whites
1/4 cup honey
1/2 lemon, peeled and seeded
4 apples, quartered and seeded
1/2 cup dates
2 Tablespoons flax seed
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 cups uncooked rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup walnuts
2 tablespoons brown sugar
cooking spray
 
I made this in the Vitamix so I'm not sure how would work with a regular blender.  I don't think it would be that different, you would just have to modify it a little bit.
 
Preheat oven to 350.  Spray a 9x9 baking pan with cooking spray
Place egg whites, honey, lemon, apples, dates, flax seed, nutmeg and cinnamon into Vitamix container in the order listed and secure lid. 
Select variable 1 
Turn machine on and quickly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High
Blend for 1 1/2 minutes, using the tamper to press the ingredients into the blades. 
Place flour, oats, salt, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl and gently combine. 
Pour liquid mixture into dry mixture and stir together by hand.
Pour into prepared baking pan
Clean and dry Vitamix container
Add walnuts and brown sugar to Vitamix container and secure lid
Select variable 1
Turn machine on and quickly increase speed to Variable 2 until chopped
Pour over batter in baking pan
Bake 45 minutes
Enjoy!
