Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have rolled oats, you can use quick-cooking oats instead.
- Be sure to peel and slice the apples evenly so that they cook at the same rate.
- If your oven cooks unevenly, rotate the baking dish halfway through the cooking time.
- Let the crisp cool for a few minutes before serving so that it firms up slightly.
