One of my favorite Fall desserts is apple crisp.
I love the combination of baked apples, spices, and crunchy oat topping .
So, I took all of the things that I love about apple crisp and made Individual Apple Crisp Oatmeal.
Now, I know that it can be difficult to get excited about oatmeal.
There’s nothing plain or boring about these guys, though.
With the baked apples and crunchy, brown sugar topping, they taste like dessert for breakfast.
So, they’re a delicious, healthy way to add a little taste of Fall to your day.

I made these today. The house smells divine!! I kept asking myself while stirring all the ingredients together how after they are cooked will they hold together like a muffin? I was trying to get the muffins out of the muffin pan and found it hard because the content was so loose. I ate one while still hot and found they were falling apart but the flavor…holy moly….SO delicious!!

Hi! They won’t be quite as cohesive as a muffin. If you find that they want to come apart, you could try adding a second egg to help bind them. Also, using a nonstick muffin tin liner really helps! =)
