Mini Oatmeal Apple Crisps

Remember the mini caramel apples that we made last month?

 
We had so much fun cutting out the apples, dipping them in the caramel, and finally eating them. But when you're done cutting up the apples, you still have apples left over. Now, you could just eat them, or you could make mini oatmeal apple crisps!

 
They were really good, and the perfect treat to make with the left over apples. Here's the recipe!

Mini Oatmeal Apple Crisps

1 pkg instant oatmeal (if you have flavored ones, you could use those here too! I used cinnamon flavor)
1 1/2 tsp softened butter + 1/2 tsp
pinch each of cinnamon and nutmeg
Apple bits

Set aside 1 tbls of oatmeal for later. Then mix together the rest of that and the 1 1/2 tsp butter. Pat into mini muffin cups.

 
Slice up the apples into those.

 
Then mix together the rest of the oatmeal that you set aside, the 1/2 tsp butter and the spices. Crumble on top.

 
Bake at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are soft. Then let cool and enjoy! We drizzled some caramel over some of ours, but you could use anything that you would like.

 
You can also mix it up a bit. Use different spices, try other toppings, or even use another filling. Be creative! You can make almost anything.

 
Have fun!
