Get all the delicious goodness of a freshly baked apple pie without having to make that daunting crust! A new take on the classic apple pie with a minimalistic approach to ingredients. Don’t forget to top it with a heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream before serving!
Ingredients:
- 2 Autumn Glory® apples, halved vertically and cored
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons sugar, plus more for sprinkling
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ⅓ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- Vanilla ice cream
- Praline Sauce for drizzling
- Note: We like to use Leah's Praline Sauce which includes pralines in the sauce. If a sauce like this isn’t available to you, caramel sauce with added pecans will work as well.
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place each apple half flat side down and use a paring knife to create thin slices along the arch of the apple. Do not slice all the way through; just shallow slices that will allow the sugar mixture to seep in.
- Transfer apple halves to a baking sheet.
- Brush apples with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake until apples are soft and caramelized, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven. In a small cup, combine the remaining melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, and oats.
- Smother apples with ¼ of the sugar and oat mixture.
- Bake for 15 more minutes.
- Remove from oven and top each with a scoop of ice cream and praline sauce, and serve!
