2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup white sugar

Instructions
1-Getting started with this apple pie stuffed pitas recipe is a breeze, and youβll enjoy the process from start to finish. Begin by prepping your ingredients to make everything run smoothly. First, peel, core, and thinly slice the green apples, then mix in the cinnamon and nutmeg for that signature spice kick.
2-Next, in a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and add the sliced apples, white sugar, water, and cornstarch. Stir gently as the mixture cooks for about 5-7 minutes until the apples soften and the sauce thickens into a warm, gooey filling. Once thatβs done, let it cool slightly to avoid making the pitas soggy when you stuff them.
3-Now, take your oat bran pita breads and carefully open each one to create a pocket. Spoon in the apple mixture, then prepare the oat crumble by combining flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, orange juice, butter, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Sprinkle this topping over the filled pitas and pop them in a preheated oven at 350Β°F for a few minutes to crisp up.
