   Mix Topping

   In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/3 cup old-fashioned oatmeal, 1/3 cup almond meal, 4 teaspoons brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.

   Add the 7 teaspoons of margarine and use a fork or your fingertips to crumble the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

   Almond Meal Tip

   If you don't have almond meal on hand, you can make your own by grinding almonds in a food processor until they're crumbly. Just be careful not to over-process, or you'll end up with almond butter instead. Alternatively, you can use whole wheat flour.
