Skillet Granola-Apple Crisp
3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
1½ cups Oat granola (recommended: Bear Naked Maple Pecan)
2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Sugar, plus ¼ cup
5 Crisp apples, such as Gala, peeled, cored & cut into ½-inch
½ teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Melt the butter in a medium nonreactive and oven safe skillet over medium heat. Add the granola, 1 tablespoon of the flour and 1 tablespoon sugar and toss until the sugar is dissolved and the granola is well-coated. Transfer to a bowl; set aside. (Reserve the skillet.)
Pour the apples into the skillet; toss with the pumpkin pie spice, lemon juice and remaining ¼ cup sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are juicy and slightly softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1tablespoon flour. Scatter the reserved granola mixture evenly over the top and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the crisp is bubbling and the apples are tender, about 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm.

Kid Talk
One day Teacher Gilda was going around asking children how they feel about Kindergarten and if they plan to go to Kindergarten. One friend who was visiting the Rainforest yard, asked Gilda "What are you doing?" Gilda told him "Do you know about Kindergarten?" he replied "Yes, I went there to pick oranges".
