What’s Cooking?…Spiced Baked Apples

If you have never baked or eaten this dessert – I promise you have missed out!  I’ve just picked some Golden Delicious apples.  These are very adaptable apples as they are good eaten fresh or cooked.  However you could use any apples you like.   I was thinking recently, I haven’t ever had baked apples in a restaurant or for that matter seen them on the menu.  I don’t understand why.  Maybe it’s considered old fashioned…..

Really, as desserts go this is a beauty.  It’s very simple.  Apples are always a good digestive.   They are not stodgy or heavy.   Baked Apples are really delicious and this is also a dessert which can be well adapted for people who are gluten intolerant or even vegan for that matter.

Whenever I make these, I will make a tray full.  Everyone always wants another or, they are delicious as a light breakfast or afternoon snack too with some natural yoghurt.  This can be made ahead of time, then baked when you are ready, or bake them all, then refrigerate and warm when required.

This is how I do it.
