What could be better than apple pie with a cinnamon roll crust? This bite-size dessert is comforting and satisfying, yet one of the easiest desserts on the site. Plus, you can control portions since each cup is only 200 calories.

These apple pie cups are ready in about 25 minutes using just 3 ingredients. Try serving them warm out of the oven topped with ice cream or with a drizzle of icing! You can also freeze them for snacks and pack lunches later on.

Ingredients

• Cinnamon roll dough: I used two 13-ounce cans of Pillsbury refrigerated cinnamon roll dough with icing, although other brands work too. Note that large sizes like Grands are slightly more work, as you’ll need to tear the dough to fit the muffin cups.
• Apple pie filling: One 21-ounce can (585 g) of apple pie filling is enough for 12 cups. You can also make homemade filling if you wish (see recipe notes below).
• For serving, try topping with the packaged icing or some vanilla ice cream. Caramel sauce is another great option.
