Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.
Make the apple filling: In a small saucepan, combine apple butter, brown sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Let cool completely.
