*I got this recipe from the Food Network program "Sara's Secrets". I lightened it up by substituting Splenda for the white sugar, and then I ran it through the recipe builder...it looks yummy!

Ingredients
2 pound plum(s) 1/3 cup McNeil Nutritionals SPLENDA No Calorie Sweetener 2 tsp orange zest 1 Tbsp orange juice 2/3 cup whole wheat flour 1/2 cup rolled oats 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1/8 tsp table salt 1 Tbsp butter 1 Tbsp canola oil 3 Tbsp frozen orange juice concentrate 1 Tbsp chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat an 8 by 8-inch baking dish (or similar 1 1/2 to 2- quart dish) with cooking spray.
Make the fruit: Combine plums, sugar, orange zest and juice in a large bowl, toss to coat. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the topping. Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl with a fork. Add butter and blend with a pastry blender or your fingertips. Add oil and stir to coat. Add orange-juice concentrate and blend with your fingertips until dry ingredients are moistened.
When fruit has baked for 20 minutes, stir it and sprinkle topping evenly over the surface. Sprinkle with walnuts. Bake, uncovered, until fruit is bubbly and tender and topping is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream (or frozen yogurt), if desired.
