Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Large apples (e.g., Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 225 grams Cream cheese, softened
- 50 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 30 grams Graham cracker crumbs
- 15 grams Butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
Wash the apples thoroughly and slice off the tops. Use a spoon or corer to carefully remove the core and some of the flesh, creating a hollow center for the filling. Be careful not to puncture the bottom of the apples.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter until evenly combined.
Spoon or pipe the cream cheese mixture into the hollowed-out apples, filling them about three-quarters full.
Sprinkle the graham cracker crumb mixture on top of the cheesecake filling in each apple.
Place the stuffed apples into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle ground cinnamon over the tops.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are tender but still hold their shape.
Remove from the oven and let the apples cool slightly before serving.
Drizzle with maple syrup for added sweetness, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your Cheesecake Stuffed Baked Apples!
