Ingredients
Oat Crumble
- 6 apples
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- •1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup butter or vegan butter, melted
- Pinch of salt
Caramel Apple Sauce
- 1/4 cup butter or vegan butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup pure apple juice
- 1/4 cup whipping cream or coconut cream
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Directions
Oat Crumble
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and pour ½ inch (1 cm) of water into a 13 × 9-inch (3.5 L) baking dish.
- If needed, shave the bottoms of the apples with a paring knife so they stand upright. Using an apple corer, paring knife, or melon baller, core the apples, creating a well about two inches wide, making sure not to go all the way to the bottom.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, and salt. Fill the apples with the oat mixture, packing it down. Place the filled apples in the prepared baking dish. Bake until you can poke the apples with the tip of a paring knife and not meet with much resistance, about 50 minutes.
Caramel Apple Sauce
- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until smooth, one to two minutes.
- Add the brown sugar and apple juice and simmer, whisking constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce has slightly thickened, two to three minutes.
- Add the cream and continue to simmer, stirring, until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla and salt.
Serve
- Serve the baked apples warm with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of Caramel Apple Sauce. The baked apples are best served warm from the oven, but they can be stored in a re-sealable container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave.
TIP: Have leftover Baked Apples? Simply blend each apple with 1 cup (250 mL) of ice and 1 cup (250 mL) of milk or non-dairy milk to make a delicious smoothie. Garnish with extra cinnamon and an apple slice if desired.
