"House" Baked Apples
There is nothing my dear husband likes better than a tasty apple dessert. His favourite is apple pie, but well . . . you don’t always have the time to bake a pie do you?
Sometimes you just want something appley and tasty without all the faffing about of rolling out pastry and then there is the wait . . . for it to bake, to cool down enough to cut, etc. Have I ever told you patience isn’t one of my virtues? Well, you know it now . . .
Enter “House” baked apples. One of my favourite go to quick apple desserts.
Simple and quick to throw together and oh so very delicious to eat . . . with all of the comforts of a crumble minus all of the work of having to rub a topping together, and in truth, you don’t really miss it. You get succulent baked sliced of apple, all sweet and buttery and nicely spiced . . . mixed with the moreish crunch of toasted flaked almonds . . . not to mention the additional textures and flavours of sweet sultana raisins and coconut!
The smell when it’s baking is almost more than you can bear . . . it smells so wonderfully homey and comforting . . . It’s a good thing it cooks rather quickly! You can have this on the table in less than half an hour and I can assure you all will be smacking their lips in anticipation! We like to call them “House” baked apples . . . coz that’s just the way we do them in this house! Enjoy!!
