Sweetened with apple butter, chewy from steel cut oats, and studded with chunks of apples, these make ahead delights are a quick breakfast, afternoon, or bedtime snack. No muffin pan? No problem!

Ever look at something familiar with fresh eyes and see it in a whole new way? That happened to me with this recipe. Each month I join the Muffin Monday bakers to bring you an original recipe using seasonal ingredients. When I saw Karen's Blueberry Muffin Top recipe, that she comprehensively baked on a cookie sheet in addition to her muffin top pan, I started thinking . . .
Why do I have to bake my muffins in a muffin pan?
What if I make a muffin batter and just scoop it out onto a cookie sheet?
I did it. The world did not end.
Since I cook and bake using the ingredients from my Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm share, I've got local apples and my "cook's portion" of Slow Cooker Apple Butter in the fridge. I decided to #usethedamnjamalready and make an apple butter flavored muffin top with chopped apples for grins and giggles. For more grins and giggles, turn up the volume and check out the outtakes from the Facebook teaser video!
