Protein Apple Pie Tartlet {gluten-free}

It’s officially Fall, my friends, and I’m on an apple kick! Crispy on the outside. Juicy on the inside. I loaded up when I went apple picking a few weeks back and have been enjoying one a day ever since. I’m a.ok with a straight up juicy apple, but when my boyfriend asked me to make an apple pie, I thought hmmmm apple pie… how can I make that healthy? Well, gang, I found a way! further ado, allow me to introduce you to the Protein Apple Pie Tartlet!

It’s super simple to make. All it involves is an apple, an Apple Pie Quest Bar, a few spices and a few minutes. Use the Quest Bar as your crust, fill ‘em up with the apples, bake, and Bazinga! Apple Pie Tartlet!
