With the arrival of October comes the arrival of the new Little Debbie Caramel Apple Oatmeal Creme Pies. Though the original Oatmeal Creme Pies are a classic snack, this seasonal variation will make you feel all the fall feelings.

The new Little Debbie Caramel Apple Oatmeal Creme Pies are a seasonal version of the brand's [classic oatmeal sandwich cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreoid-orchard-limited-edition-cookie-pack). The festive fall variation features the same soft and fluffy oatmeal cookies, but swaps the vanilla filling for a [caramel-flavored creme and apple-flavored jam](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caramel-apple-cheesecake). The result is a taste of fall in every single bite. Even better, all the cookies come individually wrapped so you can stash a single serving in your purse or lunch bag for a sweet, mid-day treat.
