Apple Brown Betty with Rolled Oats

Apple Brown Betty with Rolled Oats

I whipped up a Brown Betty recipe with rolled oats rather than breadcrumbs.  With the right oats this is gluten-free.  The recipe is for a small batch, serving two (or one hungry person).

The dish totals 500 calories, and should serve 2. Serve with milk or ice cream.
