Hasselback Apples
Hasselback Apples are a dessert that is not only easy - but delicious!!!! It turns out to be sort of like a crustless apple pie – all the goodness of the filling with no crust! I can’t say the recipe is light by any means – but it’s really not too bad! There’s a little butter and a little sugar – but that’s about it.
Ingredients
- 2 apples halved vertically and cored
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- 3 Tbsp sugar plus more for sprinkling
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- Vanilla ice cream for serving
- Praline Sauce for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet or baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil
- Peel the apples and slice in half vertically. Core the apples.2 apples
- Place each apple half cut-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 create small spaces for the sugar mixture to seep into
- Place apples to baking sheet
- Melt butter and brush apple with a little bit of the butter and sprinkle with sugar - then repeat with remaining apple halves4 tbsp butter
- Bake until apples are soft and carmelized, 30 minutes
- Remove from oven. In a small bowl, combine remaining melted butter, sugar, cinnamon and oats.3 Tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, 1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
