Ingredients
2 Tbs Fruit juice, divided (pomegranate juice works well)
2 medium-sized Peaches, peeled, and chopped
2 Tbs unsweetened Applesauce
2 C pitted and halved fresh Cherries
1 tsp Arrowroot powder
3/4 C old fashioned Rolled oats
2 Tbs Flour
2 Tbs Brown sugar
1 tsp ground Cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat 4 individual oven-safe ramekins with oil cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine the cherries, peaches, arrowroot, and 1 Tbs juice. Stir to mix well and spoon into the prepared ramekins. In a separate small bowl, stir together the oats, flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the remaining 1 Tbs fruit juice and applesauce; stir to moisten the oat mixture. Evenly divide the oat topping between the fruit-filled ramekins. Set ramekins onto a baking sheet and bake until the fruit filling is bubbling and the oat topping is golden, about 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool on a wire rack.. Serves 4.
