Apple Crumble Cups

Fall is my favorite time of year with cozy crisp, cool nights and vibrant colors of red, yellow and orange! With the change of season comes many of my favorite fruits and vegetables as well such as apples, pumpkins, sweet potatoes and Brussel sprouts! This means these foods have maximum nutrients, flavor and you can buy many of them from a local producer! 

After making these delicious Apple Crumble Cups my house smelled of cinnamon and apple…. yum :)
