- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Combine the apples, cranberries, cider, sugar, and 1 tablespoon of the flour in a bowl. Mix well. Place the apple mixture in a large oval gratin dish or an 11 x 7 inch baking dish.
- Combine the 1/2 cup of flour and the stabilized ground flaxseed (Mega Omega® or Simply Omega-3™). Add walnuts, wheat germ, salt, and cinnamon; mix well.

Try other combinations of fresh fruit, such as peaches and blackberries, with this same topping. To keep the topping crisp, reheat leftovers in the oven rather than in the microwave.
