1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla beans
100 grams or ½ cup cubed cold butter
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons melted butter
¼ cup quick oats
¾ cup flour
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup

Instructions

Filling:
Cut the apples in small cubes and put in a pan.
Add butter, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Cook on medium heat for 10 minutes and stir.
Remove from heat and place filling in a bowl. Let cool completely and refrigerate.
Crust:
Beat the butter, salt, and sugar in a mixer and cream them together.
Add the egg yolk and beat until all combined. Add the flour and continue on a low speed. When it forms big crumbs, remove from the bowl to a working surface and press it together.
Wrap in a plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Topping:
Put butter, oats, flour, and honey in a bowl, and mix together. Refrigerate.
Assembly:
Oil a mini-muffin pan.
Roll the dough on a floured surface. With a flower-shaped cookie cutter, cut cookies out and put flowers in the muffin pan.
In each space put 1 to 2 teaspoons of the apple filling. Cover the apples with the topping.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Repeat with leftover dough.
When serving, sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar.
