After a day of long flight delays, all I want to do is eat a bowl of ice cream topped with warm baked apples. Something about freshly baked apples just comforts the soul– and that’s exactly what I need. San Francisco’s weather has been kicking my butt lately. All I wanted to do was get home in time so that I can visit my bestie tomorrow, but nope… apparently mother nature had other plans for me.
I’m really bummed that I won’t be going to Utah since I’m long overdue for a visit and I miss my BFF so ย darn much. Plus, I had a bunch of baked goods to bring with me. Bahhh excuse my ranting. A 5 hour work day turned into 16 and I’m a bit tired.
I’ll get right to the point: Baked Apples. Warm. Cinnamon-y. Simple. Just as good eaten with a fork as it is served with ice cream. Bam.
Ingredients
- 3 fuji apples, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- juice of half a lemon
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
- Preheat oven to 420 degrees.
- Mix all of the ingredients (except for the last) together in a bowl until apples are evenly coated. Cube the butter and scatter on top of the apples.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes.

Wow it looks delicous and makes my little but hungry stomach starves. I think cheddar cheese will be a good toppings for me. ๐
