These baked apples are a wonderful, versatile meal solution, and can be enjoyed for breakfast, dessert, or as a snack. Pick your favorite apples, remove the core, and drizzle with olive oil and honey (or maple syrup). Sprinkle with a little bit of cinnamon and bake until tender…it’s that simple. The baked apples, once cooled, are then topped with plain Greek yogurt and granola. We like drizzling a little of the reserved pan juices over the entire dish before eating.
Baked apples will keep, refrigerated, for 2-3 days.
Tip: Honey makes for great-tasting, caramelized goodness when baked, but it also loses nutritional value in the process, so keep this in mind.
