No oven temp in the recipe but 375 for 50 minutes worked well as suggested in another review. Pulled mine out after 45 minutes as I like my apples on the crunchy side. Had mixed dried fruits and almonds on hand. Also used a splenda/brown sugar mix instead. Turned out great as a side dish to stuffed pork chops (another Neely's recipe....... DELICIOUS!

350 for an hour worked nicely. I used pistachios (had on hand and it was delicious. Big hit with the husband and toddler for weeknight dessert. You could probably add ice cream for a 'weekend dessert' :
