1 Video | Photo: Baked Apples Recipe
Baked apples are so very good and can be served along with baked ham or roasted turkey as part of the meal. They may also be served as a dessert with caramel sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 6 same-size Granny Smith apples
- 2 tablespoons butter, cut into 6 teaspoon-size pieces
- 1 cup apple juice
- 6 sprigs fresh mint
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Combine cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
Core apples, making sure not to puncture the bottom of the apples so that the juices will remain. Remove skin from 1/2-inch around top of apples at the opening. Fill each cavity with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Top each apple with a teaspoon of butter. Place apples in casserole dish and pour apple juice around them. Cover pan with aluminum foil and bake for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from heat, garnish with fresh mint, and serve.

It's like having apple pie without the carbs! I add ice cream to have it ala mode and it is just scrumptious!

The apples do not need to bake this long. To be safe I baked them 45 minutes and it was still way to long they fell apart. I will try again baking them for 30 minutes. Just make sure to keep an eye on them while cooking!

We loved these and very simple to make. I only baked for 40 minutes and then let them sit for 15 minutes with the foil still on the pan. Next time I will use half the sugar and they will still be delicious!
