I decided to make baked apples with granola. I have never made anything like this before, so this was all new to me. I’m use to using granola for cereal, parfait or for toppings. I wanted to make something different that would be delicious as well.
Ingredients:
- 2 Apples of Your Choice (I used Golden Delicious)
- 1 Cup Golden Girl Granola-The Original
- 1/3 Cup Brown Sugar
- 2 TBS Butter
- 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
- Raisins
Instructions:
Cut the apples in half. Then you’re going to want to scoop out the inside. Make sure to leave some in there. I would say to leave about 1/4 of the apple still inside. I found that a melon baller really works great for scooping out all the apple.
Next I mixed up the granola, butter (melted), brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Then you can take a spoon and scoop the mixture in to the apples.
You will want to bake these at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes. I put mine in a casserole dish and I’d recommend the same because it may make a mess and you don’t want it to go all over the oven. Once they’re done you can put some raisins on top.
This was a fun recipe to make. I hope you all enjoy it. It’s very quick and simple too!
