Baked Cinnamon Apple Slices

This simple apple dessert is perfect for the colder months. It has the same comfort you’d associate with apple pie or apple crisp, but without the fuss.

It makes the house smell amazing, AND it’s kid friendly – especially if you top your sliced baked apples with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Slicing the apples and coating them with the delicious butter and sugar mixture is so much easier than a traditional whole baked apple recipe. And it adds so much flavour to the apples!

Here’s What You’ll Need:

You only need 4 ingredients:

• Honeycrisp/Fuji/Gala Apples (Sliced)
• Brown Sugar
• Cinnamon
• Butter

What apples are best for baked apple slices?

We used Honeycrisp apples in the recipe you see in the photos. Honeycrisp apples are sweet and tender and keep their shape while baking. I recommend using Honeycrisp, Gala, Red Delicious or Fuji apples for this recipe. You can use one type of apple or choose a couple varieties to mix together.

With so many varieties of apples out there, it’s easy to get a bit overwhelmed with which ones to use for specific recipes. Some apples never quite soften up while others turn to mush when you cook them (Macintosh apples are probably not going to work here). Some are more tart (like Granny Smith) while others are known for tasting sweet (like Honeycrisp).

What to serve with sliced baked apples?

You can eat the apples fresh out of the oven on their own. (Don’t forget to top them with a spoonful of the delicious, buttery liquid at the bottom of the dish!) Or you can serve your sliced baked apples with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

You can also pour heavy cream on top, or add a spoonful of vanilla yogurt. Whipped cream is also a delicious option! My mother used to serve baked apples with custard.

Baked apple slices paired with something creamy and cool will always be a winning combination.

Baked Apple Slices Recipe

The key with this recipe is to bake your apples so they keep their shape but can easily be cut with a fork or spoon.

These healthy baked apple slices can be re-heated in the oven or microwave and they taste just as good… if there’s any leftovers to begin with!

As I was finishing up the dishes last night, my 5 year old ate every last one of the leftover apple slices that were sitting on the counter. Not a single leftover in sight!

These baked apple slices are SO GOOD and they’re really easy to make! With only 4 ingredients you can make this delicious, gluten free dessert in no time. This is such a great dessert recipe and a super comforting treat in winter. These baked cinnamon apple slices will satisfy any craving for apple pie without the fuss of actually making one!
