The filling mix for this recipe consists of a delicious mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg, raisins, oats, nuts, butter and brown sugar. This combination leaves you with a center full of flavor that combines perfectly with the tender apple.
This recipe will make six delicious baked apples, which should be enough to feed six people. I highly recommend that you serve the apples with a side dish like ice cream. You can easily duplicate the recipe if necessary.
Leftovers are worth keeping as they are a fantastic breakfast, both hot and cold. If you’re reheating apples, be sure to heat them in a microwave or hot oven.
Like
any apple recipe,
you can use any type of apple, but results may vary. For best results, I recommend using an apple for stewing or baking. You can usually find them in any good supermarket. There are quite a few varieties, but I highly recommend using something like Jonagold, Granny Smith, or something similar.
If you prefer your desserts to be less sugary, you can leave the sugar out of the filling. Apples and raisins should be able to provide enough sweetness to keep these baked apples enjoyable.
Nuts can be easily exchanged for nuts instead. If you have a nut allergy, you can leave the nuts out altogether. Crushed cornflakes are a decent replacement.
Explosive apples
are quite common when you go to bake apples and it’s no different when you cook them in the slow cooker. There are some things you can do to help reduce the chance of the apple crumbling, such as pricking the skin or peeling a small strip of skin.

As you can imagine, baked apples go perfectly with some vanilla ice cream. I like to use vanilla ice cream as it is unlikely to conflict with apple flavors. That said, don’t be afraid to use your favorite ice cream.
A good thick cream will work very well poured over the top of these apples. You can make the custard at home, or you can pick up some at the local supermarket. Either option will work perfectly with this dessert.
The easiest accompaniment is to simply serve the apples with a splash of cream. The cream will add extra texture and a little flavor. It also helps cut off some of the sweetness of apples.
