Baked
in a standard muffin tray, these flavour bombs are made with a flaky, light
classic pie crust on the bottom, are topped with a layer of tangy and zesty cinnamon
apple filling, and are finished off with a warm buttery oatmeal streusel.
Cooking
apples are good stuffed with a filling such as dried fruits or mincemeat, dusted with sugar, dotted with butter and baked
in the oven; chopped for an
apple pie or crumble; thinly sliced for a
classic French tarte tatin; thickly sliced and pan-fried
in butter and sugar and served with ice cream; stewed to make an
apple sauce for game or rich meat like pork; grated and added to muesli.
