Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup oatmeal (not instant)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, chilled (1/4 cup-you may substitute margarine)
6 -8 medium honey crisp apples (or another firm, tart, cooking apple)
1/4 cup butter (1/4 cup-may substitute margarine)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon cold water
1 pie crust (Pillsbury unroll-and-fill pie crusts work great or make your own)

Steps:

  • Place all topping ingredients in the bowl of the food processor and pulse a few times until well blended(or mix thoroughly by hand).
  • Peel and dice apples. Saute in a medium pan over medium heat, with butter. Cook until nearly soft. Add brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix cornstarch and water and pour into the simmering apple mixture. Cook, while stirring until well thickened. Turn off heat and allow to cook slightly.
  • Roll out the chilled pie crust and cut into circles. Be sure to cut one then double check that the circle size works for the size of your muffin pan. Place circles in greased muffin tin, being sure not to pierce holes in the bottom. You can use mini muffin tins for bite sized treats or regular for something more substantial. Spoon filling into dough cups, all the way to the top.
  • Place one spoon full of topping over that. Press the topping gently so the crumbs don't fall off of the pies. Bakes pies at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes then serve warm. Enjoy!
  • Note:.
  • If in a rush use canned pie filling.
