Baked Stuffed Apples

Growing up, my mom always made these delicious Baked Stuffed Apples for brunch on Thanksgiving day. We would pour a little canned milk or cream over them and eat them up. I always looked forward to them each year.

These apples are stuffed with a sweet brown sugar cinnamon mixture with added walnuts and dried cranberries. Then, they’re each drizzled in buttery maple syrup.

The great thing about these Baked Stuffed Apples is not only can they be eaten for brunch during the holidays, but these also make a wonderful dessert. Just add a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream over top and, voila! Or, go a little lighter and use whipped cream instead.

I chose to use Honeycrisp apples for this recipe. We love this variety of apple at our house and they’re just so crisp, juicy, and sweet!

Now, these are like large/x-large apples. If you prefer to use a different variety or smaller sized apple, just make sure to reduce the time you bake them. I mention that info. a little further down below and also in the instructions.

If you do go with smaller apples, you more than likely will have left over brown sugar mixture. You can either save it for something else, or sprinkle the remainder around the bottom of the apples before they bake, if desired.

How to Make Baked Stuffed Apples

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Using an apple corer, scoop out the core and seeds of each apple. Make sure the opening at the top of the apple is wide enough for you to stuff mixture into. Set apples aside.

Next, in a bowl, mix together walnuts, cranberries, brown sugar, and spice.

Place all of the apples in a 9×13″ glass baking dish. Stuff each apple with the brown sugar mixture.

In a small bowl, mix melted butter and maple syrup together and drizzle over apples. Then, pour apple juice around bottoms of apples.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 degrees F. for 50 minutes. Then, uncover and place back into oven for another 10 minutes.

To check if apples are tender, gently pierce side of apple with fork and if it goes in easy enough, it’s done. If they need to bake a little longer, then bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes or until apples are fork tender.

Let apples cool down a bit before serving and eating. These can be served with vanilla ice cream, whipped topping, canned milk, or as is.

Important to note: If using smaller to medium sized apples, bake for about 40 minutes covered and then an additional 20 minutes uncovered or until apples are fork tender.

Makes 6 servings.
