Vegan Baked Apples
So forget about making a apple pie, individually customize each baked apple for everyone in the family.
Ingredients
- 4 Apples I have used Braeburn, Ambrosia, Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, and Fuji apples. Try different apples each time you make these baked apples.
- 2 Tbsp Vegan Margarine
- 2 Tbsp Brown Sugar or Real Maple Syrup
- Seasonings I used cinnamon, but you can use nutmeg, ginger, or basil.
Extra's to try- List is in Notes.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Clean and cut the core out of the apples.
- Place the apples into a glass baking dish. ( The size will vary depending on how many apples you are baking. )
- Add the margarine into the core area of each apple half.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar or pour the maple syrup evenly on top of each apple.
- Lastly, sprinkle the spices of choice over each of the apples.
- If adding extras, such as fruits, oats, or nuts, add to each apple.
- Pour about 1/2 inch of water into the bottom of the dish before baking, this will help to keep the apples moist during baking.
- Place the dish into the oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes.
- NOTE: The time can vary depending on the type of apple you use and how tender you would like the apples.
- Once the apples are done to your desired tenderness, remove from the oven.
- Serve your baked apple just as they are or top them with your favorite ice cream or whipped topping.
- Enjoy!
