Easy Baked Apples. Almost like pie, but without the hassle of making a crust. A simply scrumptious dessert that is ready to eat in an hour. So easy, a child can make it.

Baked Apples are a nice, light treat.
Easy Baked Apples recipe shows you how to make apple pie without the crust.
My Baked Apples recipe requires just 8 ingredients. I love this dessert. It is comfort food, for sure. Just 10 minutes prep and pop them in the oven for about 45 minutes. Eight ingredients. I usually bake them while we eat so they are ready and warm when it's time for dessert. I often bring these delicious Baked Apples to community potluck dinners. They are easy to make, not too sweet, and diabetic friendly. They are especially good in the fall when the apples are fresh and the air is crisp.
What You Need
For this recipe, you need a casserole dish, knives or apple corer, and measuring cups and spoons. I recommend you get yourself an Apple Corer. It will make this recipe even easier!
