Number Of Ingredients 6

Butter, for greasing pan
1 Granny Smith apple
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup brown sugar
Two 8-count tubes refrigerated cinnamon rolls
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously butter a 12-count muffin tin.
  • Peel, core and dice the apples into 1/2-inch cubes. In a medium bowl stir together the diced apples with the walnuts and brown sugar.
