Greetings!

here's a fall favorite of mine that I can't resist! It is sweet and fills the kitchen with the smell of cinnamon and sugar.

These Warm Apple Crisp Cups are the perfect little treat... all the cozy flavor of homemade apple crisp, but baked in individual portions.

They're simple to make, easy to serve, and taste amazing warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Be Well,

If you're prepping apples ahead of time, toss them with lemon juice or even a splash of orange juice. It keeps them looking fresh and bright until you're ready to bake.
