This Cinnamon Toast Crunch Apple Slice is my version of the midwest staple of Apple Slice. But uses Cinnamon Toast Crunch instead of Corn Flakes.

Apple pie is one of my ultimate comfort foods.
I think it is for a lot of people.
It’s also one of the few desserts that I really can’t stop eating.
So I try not to make it that often.
The way that I love to eat it most is in the form of Apple Slice.
It’s called different things different places.
But its apple pie that is made in a sheet pan instead of a pie pan.
The other difference is that it usually has crushed Cornflake cereal in it as well.
It’s also GIANT and you see it mostly at potlucks when baking for a crowd.

Since it is so large, I put off making it until now.
That is when I realized that I could just make a smaller version of it so that I don’t eat a whole sheet pan of it.
That and I only had 5 apples and the average apple slice takes about 10.
Like I said above traditional Apple Slice has crushed cornflakes.
I’m not sure why but sure, why not?
But since I rarely do traditional and it made more sense to me I used Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
I mean I’m already using cinnamon in the pie, why not use a cinnamon cereal?
I definitely like my Cinnamon Toast Crunch Apple Slice version better than the original.

Threw in some toffee pieces to the pie.
You don’t have to but I did for a little bit of extra flavor.
I also used a good amount of glaze because I love glaze.
But you can half the amount of glaze if needed.
And as always it’s a great day to order my cookbook.
If you love the recipes on the blog you will love the ones in the book!

6. Sprinkle with Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
7.. In a large bowl, combine apples, 1/2 cup sugar, 1-1/2 tsp cinnamon and nutmeg; toss to coat. Spoon over crust.
8. Sprinkle toffee pieces over apples.
9. Roll remaining dough into a thin 13x10-in. rectangle; place over apple filling.

12. For Glaze:
13. Combine the powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over warm pastry. Cool completely on a wire rack. Cut into squares.

This sounds delicious. I don’t have any Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal but I do have some Churro cereal. I will definitely be trying this one. This may seem like a silly question but will your cookbook have a picture of each recipe? I love how creative your recipes are.
Peabody says
That will work too…just crush it up!
Yes, each recipe in the cookbook has a picture. And hopefully soon the cover will too. 🙂
Judi says
Do you think that caramels can be used instead of toffee,and can this be made in an electric skillet,m
Peabody says
You can try the caramels but I think they would go back to being hard. Not sure if you can make it in a skillet. I have never used one to bake in.
Stephanie Haly says
ok Peabody, making pie crust fills me with dread. Like, I literally feel like I’m writing a Grade 12 calculus test. However, because this pie looks insane and I have all these apples my children refuse to eat – I will attempt your crust. I may not live through the experience but I want you to know that I’m going to give it a try.
Kimberly L Brown says
My son said your recipe should be renamed to Cinnamon Toast Crunch Apple Pop Tarts. He said you nailed the pop tart flavor and texture.
Peabody says
I do love me a Pop Tart! Thank your son for the compliment!
