Baked Apple Slices
Description
Warm baked apple slices with honey and cinnamon. Tastes like apple pie without the fuss of a crust! The ultimate healthy, easy apple dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or coconut oil
- 4 medium apples a mix of tart (such as Granny Smith) and sweet-crisp (such as Honeycrisp), cored and cut into ¼-inch thick slices (I leave the peels on)
- ¼ cup honey or pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground allspice
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons bourbon or water
- Ice cream or whipped cream optional for serving
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a very large, microwave-safe mixing bowl, heat the butter in the microwave until it melts. If your bowl is not microwave safe, melt the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl or in a saucepan on the stove, then pour it into the larger bowl.
- To the mixing bowl, add the apple slices, honey, cornstarch, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and bourbon. Stir to coat.
- Pour the mixture into a deep 9×9 or similarly sized baking dish. Pour any liquid that has collected in the bottom of the bowl over the top.
- Bake the apples for 25 minutes, until fork tender but not completely mushy.
- Serve hot, with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream as desired.
