  • You can always also peel the apples, however, I like to keep their skin. If you prepare this dessert for your kids, is probably best to peel the apples – they tend to prefer this dessert like that! On the other hand, keep in mind that keeping the skin on helps the apples not to become too mushy.
  • For an even healthier baked apple slices recipe, replace the sugar with honey or maple syrup. The maple syrup will also bring a hint of caramel and toffee to the dessert’s flavor.

  • Before serving you can drop a pat of butter on the hot apples and let it melt just a little. However, most of us prefer the old good vanilla ice cream on top of our baked apple slices.
  • Add chopped walnuts, pecans, or sliced almonds on top of your apple slices before baking for a crunchier texture.
  • Try other spices, like pumpkin pie spice or Chinese five-spice, for a more festive and surprising flavor.

First of all, it’s important to know exactly what you need in order to rock these baked apple slices with cinnamon! You don’t have to worry; probably you already have all the ingredients in your kitchen.
