Baked Apples
Description
This recipe begins by preparing medium to large apples that are halved and cored, arranged cut side up in a baking dish. The filling combines melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and cinnamon to form a crumbly mixture.
The mixture is spooned evenly into the centers of the apples. Baking at 350°F for 25-30 minutes softens the apples until tender while the oat topping develops a lightly crisp texture. The sweet cinnamon flavor complements the natural fruitiness.
Baked apples can be served warm as a comforting dessert or snack, showcasing a balance of soft baked fruit and a slightly crunchy, mildly sweet topping. The use of coconut sugar and oil adds a subtle flavor variation compared to traditional sugars and fats.
