Hasselback Apples
October 6, 2015
Hasselback Apples are a great dessert for fall, which takes bake apples to a whole other level. There's just something so comforting about sweet, juicy hot baked apples with a gooey cinnamon, brown sugar topping topped with vanilla ice cream. These can be made in advance and are perfect for your fall entertaining.
- Prep: 10 mins
- Cook: 45 mins
- Yields: 4 Servings
Directions
1Preheat oven to 400° F.
2Starting at the outermost edges, cut most (but not all) of the way through each apple half at ¼ inch intervals. Place apple halves, cut sides down, in an 8-inch square glass or ceramic baking dish coated with cooking spray. Combine 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon; brush mixture evenly over apple.
3Cover pan with foil; bake at 400° F for 20 minutes. Remove foil. Bake at 400° F for 10 minutes or until apples are tender. Remove pan from oven; cool 10 minutes.
4Combine remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, remaining 1½ tablespoons butter, remaining ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, oats, flour, and salt. Carefully fan open apple halves. Spoon oat mixture evenly over apples. Bake at 400° for 10 minutes. Turn broiler to high (leave pan in the oven); broil 2 minutes. Serve with ice cream.
--Make Ahead Tip:
Cook apples in advance, but hold off on step 4. Cool and refrigerate baked apples until ready to serve; then top with streusel and bake as directed.
