Cherry Apple Mini Crumbles

I have been lacking in my blog posts for a long time and am trying to get back into it! Bought a house just about a year ago and it has been consuming most of my free time. 
I made these cherry apple mini crumbles over the weekend, and they are seriously easy to make and great for Summer!

What you will need:
For the crumble:
½ cup rolled oats
½ cup flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
Pinch of salt
1/3 cup  maple syrup
2 tbsp. cold butter, cut into small pieces

For the apple filling:
2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
Handful of cherries, pitted (or canned cherries)
2 tbsp maple syrup
½ cup water

Preheat the over to 350°F.

Lightly coat a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray.

To make the crumble topping: combined the oats, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Stir in maple syrup until well coated. Use a fork to smash the butter pieces into the oat mixture until crumbly.

To make the apple filling: add apples, maple syrup, and water to a small saucepan.  Cook over medium heath, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

To assemble: place 1 tsp of the oat mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup. Use your fingers to gently press down to form a solid crust.

Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven, let cool to room temperature, then use an offset spatula to gently remove from the pan.

Serve and enjoy!
