Baked fruit is often overlooked for dessert. Fruit is sweet as is, but when baked the natural sweetness intensifies.

Baked apples are a delicious dessert. Simply remove the core, stuff with your favorite filling, and bake!

Kip’s is an allergy-friendly, gluten-free, and vegan granola bark is free from the eight main food allergens, including peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, dairy, eggs, and soy, and additionally free of sesame and sunflower seeds.

These baked apples are stuffed with Kip’s Granola Bark.

1 honeycrisp apple (or another variety like gala or granny smith) 2 tablespoons crumbled Kip’s Cinnamon Crunch Granola Bark 1/2 teaspoon butter, melted (or dairy-free, soy-free Amargarine) 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 tablespoon water

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Use a melon baller, carefully remove the stem and seeds from the apples, making a deep hole where the filling will go.  In a small bowl, combine the crumbled Kip’s Cinnamon Crunch Granola Bark, butter, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon. Fill into the cavity of the apple. Add water to a small oven-safe baking dish and place the stuffed apple on top. Bake for 30 minutes, until apple, is fork tender. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Spoon the sauce drippings from the pan over the apples. Serve with ice cream, if desired.
