Why you’ll love this baked apples sundae recipe:

- Sweet: This dessert recipe will cure everyone’s sweet tooth after a holiday dinner

Ingredient Notes:
Granny Smith Apples: These tart apples are perfect for this dessert. When baked they’re sweet but add a little bit of tartness to this sweet recipe.
Cinnamon: Did you know cinnamon actually contains powerful medicinal properties and is loaded with antioxidants?
Pumpkin Spice Creamer: Is there anyone that doesn’t like pumpkin spice? It’s seriously so comforting during the fall. For this recipe, I used Pumpkin Spice Superfood Creamer from Laird for the pumpkin spice drizzle. It has that pumpkin spice flavor but with no artificial ingredients.
How to make baked apples:
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- Make the filling by mixing together the oats, softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and chai spice, stirring/mashing together to combine. Set aside.
- To a small baking dish fill the bottom with warm water, about a ¼ inch (so apples don’t burn/stick to the dish when baking).
- Core the apples, using an apple corer or a small paring knife. Then use a small spoon to scoop out the middle of the apple, along with any remaining seeds, about ¾ way down the apple.
- Put the cored apples into the baking dish with the water.
- Use a spoon to fill each apple with the oat mixture, dividing between the 4 apples, filling all the way to the top.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the apples are slightly soft.
- While the apples are baking, make the pumpkin spice drizzle. On low heat, warm the sweetened condensed coconut milk for a few minutes and whisk in 1 tbsp of Laird Pumpkin Spice Superfood Creamer until combined. Remove from the heat.
- Serve the apples topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of pumpkin spice sauce.
Expert Tips & FAQ:
Chai Spice: If you don’t have ground chai spice, substitute with 1/2 tsp more cinnamon.
