Apple Crisp Bites

Apple Crisp Bites – A little bite of heaven! Crispy baked oatmeal cookie crust on the outside, soft apple pie on the inside!

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 24-cup mini-muffin tin.

2. In a medium size pan, melt butter, add apples, spices, brown sugar, and 3 Tablespoons of water.

3. Cook over medium-high heat, for 4-6 minutes or until apples are very slightly softened.

3. In a small dish combine cornstarch and 2 Tablespoons of water. Add to the pan while stirring and continue to cook until apples are tender, and the filling is thickened about 4-5 minutes. Cool.

4. Combine flour, oats, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

5. Place a heaping tablespoon of the crust mixture into a mini muffin cup. Press along the bottom and sides to make a “cup”. There will be a crust mixture left over.

6. Place about 1 tablespoon of apple filling in the crust. Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of the remaining crust mixture on the filling.

7. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Use a knife to loosen them from the pan and they should pop right out.

8. Drizzle with caramel topping if desired
