Delicious Baked Apples Recipe

Delicious! It really needs a lot more liquid, though. I took one of the other changes someone else made to heart, and added apple juice instead of water, but I added about a cup. And since I didn't have vanilla sugar, I added a tsp of vanilla to the apple juice. It turned out great! Next time, I may cut back a bit on the cinnamon, it was a tad bit overwhelming. Still added it to my recipe box!!

I gave this four stars because I hate when people give 5 stars and then proceed to change the recipe. I used this recipe as a general guide, which was very helpful! I sliced 3 apples, tossed them in lemon juice (keeps them from browning and also allows you to use apples that may not be crisp and tart!). I did not do the layering step, I just threw everything together in the bowl. In addition to the brown sugar and cinnamon, I added 2 TBSP melted butter and about half cup of oats. I also put only a PINCH of nutmeg (nutmeg is extremely strong stuff...I can't believe this recipe calls for 1 tsp!). I also used vanilla extract instead of the vanilla sugar. I did not add any extra water as the lemon juice and vanilla extract was plenty. But if it looks too dry to you, by all means add some more water/juice. Baked at 350 for 30 min...voila! It was AMAZING!

Looks & tastes great, smells fantastic! Made almost as recipe stated. Used 6 medium-sized Cooking apples (am in UK so they are a thing here). Slightly less cinnamon as Mum not keen on strong cinnamon taste. I'd make it with recommended amount for myself. I adjusted the cooking time & temp as using Halogen Oven - similar to using Fan oven. 160C for 25mins, then put recommended amount of water in & cooked for further 12 mins. Apples very tender and not dry at all. Not anywhere close. Was excellent, especially with good vanilla ice cream. Have made a couple of times, definitely a keeper!

Because I made some changes I gave it 4 stars...now my recipe gets 5 stars! My changes: increase butter to 2 T; use 3 t Stevia rather than vanilla sugar (I like to reduce sugar where I can without sacrificing taste); decrease cinnamon to 2 t; add 1 t vanilla extract; decrease nutmeg to 1/4 t; add 1/4 cup no-sugar- added applesauce rather than water. Mix all together; 350 degrees for 30 min.

I'm not the best cook, but I am very happy with how this turned out! I had 8 medium-sized gala apples that needed to be used up, and they worked perfectly for this dish! I did read the comments before starting, so I followed the advice of some of the other commenters. I used about a 1/4 cup of applesauce and added just enough water to it to make it thinner. I added this instead of the water at the 30-minute mark. I then pulled it out 10 minutes later, stirred it, and added a crumble topping. I put it back in the oven for another 10 minutes until the crumble topping began to brown a little on top. It was supposed to be a dessert for after dinner, but the aroma filled our house and lured the whole family out to the kitchen. Guess I'll have to make another batch!

Very good for a light treat. Tossed everything together, no layering. Tried to decrease sugar to 1 Tbsp vanilla sugar and 1 Tbsp brown which was very good but most prefer more sugar. 6 honey crisp apples, 1 full tsp cinnamon, touch nutmeg, 1 Tbsp cubed butter in bottom of greased 9x13 baking dish. Baked 30 mins at 350, then added 1/4 cup water and bake 15 mins more. Some pieces were still firm and others soft. Try adding a pinch of salt next time and maybe 1/4 cup more water as there was little caramelization or syrup

I used 2 Tbls melted butter, 1/8 c brown sugar 2Tbls coconut sugar, pinch of salt and 1/4 tsp vanilla along with 1/8 tsp nutmeg and 1tsp cinnamon. I mixed this well and coated the bottom of a large cast iron skillet. Covered the sugar mixture with old fashioned oats then layered the prepared apples around the top. Cooked for 15 minutes stirred it all up and cooked it 10 more minutes. My house smelled Devine. I served the apples with cinnamon puffs for breakfast. Very yummy.

Simple. She'll make it again. 10 yr old wouldn't let me in the kitchen. We learned what vanilla sugar is. We stirred the water in with the spices before pouring over the apples, because we didn't have 45 min. for it to bake. We doubled it but not the water. With the water already mixed in, we didn't need extra liquid. It also only took 30 min in the oven this way.

Apple pie, baked apples ECT have never really been a favorite of mine but i had an abundance of red apples that i needed to use up so i gave this a try. Because i was preparing my apples prior to baking, i soaked them in lemon water until ready to assemble my dish. I followed the recipe except i added about a fourth cup of water mixed with a fourth cup of caramel ice cream topping. I buttered an aluminum pan and put in my apples, mixed them up with the dry mix then poured my water caramel mix in and mixed that up. I covered with foil and put it on my grill on low. Stirring occasionally to make sure the bottom wasnt burning. They came out great. Served with some vanilla bean ice cream while they were still warm. I grilled because i happen to already be grilling but this would be great in the oven too.

This was a great way to start breakfast the day after Christmas. We used Granny Smith apples. I didn't have vanilla sugar so added the vanilla to the apple juice. I used 3/4 cup apple juice instead of water. I also cut back on the cinnamon and nutmeg as others suggested. After 30 minutes at 350 - I added the juice and vanilla and turned the over up to 400 degrees. The apples were cooked, but still a bit firm like we like them. We had them over cinnamon pancakes, but would be great over ice cream or oatmeal.

These are delicious! I added 1/4 of water instead of 3 tablespoons and drizzled the layers with lemon juice so it wouldn't be too sweet. I also added a few drops of pure vanilla extract directly to the sugar mixture because I didn't have vanilla sugar. There is plenty of syrup after baking. I used Fuji apples.

Made it and I can’t stop bragging about it.

Can we talk about how easy this is?!

I used vegan butter

Tastes way better than I expected.

Bro, this recipe just flexed on all others.

No changes. It came out very tasty. A little strong on cinnamon but we liked it just fine.

Tried it for the first time — huge success.

I could have used more apples, but they were very good. I will try them on ice cream.

Alrighty then Baker-Bees and Chef-Aronis! Here's my 2¢... Definitely pleasanly pleased! Wasn't quite sure with the twists I made! First of all, had just three apples although in an 8x8 Pyrex it made 3 perfect layers. I may do a pear mix in the future. Nextly... I made the approximate same amount of dry topping and glad I did as I don't see how that would have been enough for 6 apples. I would recommend double for 6 apples. Then lacking vanilla suga-duga I substituted 2 tsp of white sugar and driziled a little vanilla ext on each layer as well as lemon juice. I was concerned the nutmeg and cinnamon would be too much although recommended amount was fine. Lastly, after 30 minutes in oven it did seem a bit dry and was concerned 3 1\2 tbl of water would be to little! As per other comments I thought apple juice would be more advantagous than water but alas I did not have that handy so...Lightbulb! I did have apple sauce and mixed that with water 3 to 1, little over 1\4 cup. Poured that over the top and mixed it all up! Then covered with foil for another 15 minutes. When I pulled it out it was a bubbling masterpiece! How bout that! Served over vanilla ice cream, whipped topping would also be good! One more idea, I think on top of a waffle would be scrumptious! Yum yum. Thanks for the recipie and Bon apitite!
