Baked Apples

Baked Apples – A Simple Healthy Dessert

Baked apples are one of the easiest hot puddings you could make. Completely delicious, they are as welcome on a hot summers day as a cold winter evening. Perhaps only rice pudding is as easy. It is also a very healthy pudding containing vitamin C and fibre and is quite low calorie. Unless of course you are tempted to serve it with custard or cream!

Bramley apples tend to be available all year round. They are of course the very best apple to use in cooking since the they retain their texture and flavour so well. Some apple varieties go quite mushy when cooked and lose some flavour and are definitely better eaten raw. When Bramleys are baked, the apple is a lovely fluffy texture.

Oven Sharing

It is a good idea to plan cooking baked apples along with baking something else, so that you get most use from the oven being on. Whether baking bread, a pasta bake for dinner or making a cake it is always good to oven share. This cuts down your electricity bill and your carbon footprint and makes the most of your cooking time.

Preparing the baked apples is a little easier if you have an apple corer, but if you do not, a small sharp knife will do the job as well.

Try to choose apples that are roughly the same size so they will all require the same amount of cooking time. If you find apples that are too big, just share one between two.

    Thank you for your recipe being here, I have just been given a bag of Bramleys and remember I made baked apples in one of my first cookery lessons at Grammar school and thought I’d do them again and this is the first time since then, which is just a little while ago ? as in 40 odd years…so I thought I would check up on what to do…I seemed to remember butter being involved but couldn’t recall just where…I’ll let you know how I go ?

      Thank you for your feedback. Sorry you used up so much paper and ink.

      If you use the Print Recipe link at the bottom of the recipe – you can delete sections of text with the click of your mouse before you print – so you can just get the recipe itself. In addition I am gradually changing all my recipes over to a new format which make it much simpler to print the recipe.

      I have over 450 recipes so it does take a little time. I am just about to do this one following your comment

      I very much hope you enjoy your Baked Apples and I do hope you will use more recipes from the site – especially when the printing is easier. Please let me know if I can be of any further help at any time. And thank you for visiting Penny’s Recipes.
