- Place on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
- Optional: Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce.
Notes
- Remember: to keep your apple from rocking back and forth, make sure you slice a thin, even slice off the side of the apple that will rest on the pan to avoid rocking.
- You can take off 1/4 top of apple and remove the core and seeds to create a place for your spooned in mixture.
- Feel free to use a stevia brown sugar blend in the place of regular sugar.
