Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Large apples (such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Caramel sauce
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash and core the apples, removing the seeds and creating a cavity in the center of each apple large enough to hold the filling. Be careful not to cut through the bottom of the apple.
In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar, butter, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, rolled oats, chopped nuts, and vanilla extract to create the filling.
Stuff each apple with the prepared filling, pressing it down gently to pack it in.
Place the apples in a baking dish and pour the water into the bottom of the dish to prevent the apples from drying out while baking.
Bake the apples in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until they are tender but still hold their shape. Baste the apples with the liquid in the dish every 15 minutes for extra flavor and moisture.
Once baked, remove the apples from the oven and drizzle with caramel sauce while still warm.
Serve immediately on their own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
