Looking for a way to make quick Apple Pies this Fall? These Apple Pie Bites Could be the hit at your next Fall Gathering – Just saying:)
Why Make Apple Pie Bites
Our kids are loving Crescent Rolls lately. I have been buying crescent rolls for easy breakfasts and snacks. So I decided to make some Apple Pie Bites (or Apple Pie Cups) this Fall using Crescent Rolls. These rolls are easy to make and easy to eat. I love that Apple Pie Bites are mini, easy to store and require no cutting for serving. We love making apple pies during the Fall – it’s always so fun. But sometimes finding an easier way to make a favorite recipe is great too. Nothing will replace a good ole apple pie though, but these minis are worth the try.

We Enjoyed These Apple Pie Bites
These turned out so delicious. I even saw my husband heating up some for a to-go breakfast the next morning. He took them to work on his way out. I was sort of surprised that he took them for breakfast but then I thought, well, they are made from Crescent rolls and Apple filling so it’s kind a like a breakfast casserole to some extent.
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness (Proverbs 31:27).
