Apples with oat flakes crumble

This monthly Tea Time Treat have been something of a challenge for me !!! Here in February it is Kate from What Kate Baked (being the hostess of the virtual tea table), and she selected Perfect Puddings as the theme. What is pudding for me ? I connect pudding with a Dr. Okter powder, which you some how turn in to a vanilla pudding or chocolate pudding !!!!! Or even verse, you cut open a ready-to-eat UHT carton with pudding inside. So this theme did not bring me any positive thoughts at all.

However, I looked at Kate´s contribution for the virtual tea table and so that she had made a crumble. So I decided to make a crumble as well using a copy of a recipe, which I have got from a very good girl friend, exchanging the use of cinnamon with Chai sugar.   

The Tea Time Table is a monthly blogging event managed  Karen from Lavender and Lovage and Kate from What Kate Baked
