Fall flavors are my favorite for baking. This week we are celebrating everything apple for #AppleWeek 2019.

Applesauce whether store bought or homemade just tastes better when apples are in season. We have loads of apple orchards and apple festivals in our area. I can’t resist visiting one from time to time throughout harvest time.

For Apple Week, the #AppleWeek Bloggers were given apples from Envy Apple. Envy Apples are available in a store near you. Try some today!

My tassies are made with store purchased applesauce as a short cut. You can use any type you like. I added hazelnut flour and ground Narin’s Oat Grahams to make a nutty, graham type crust.

Narin’s Oat Grahams eaten alone are gluten free.

The dough is super easy to make. Add all the ingredients, knead, chill and roll into a rectangle. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and press inside a lightly greased mini muffin pan compartments.
