Baked Apples a la mode
Baked apples filled with dried tart cherries, pecans, and brown sugar, then topped with ice-cream inspired yogurt for an 'a la mode' effect!
Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 large apples I like fuji or gala for baking!
- 1/3 c. tart dried cherries
- 1/3 c. pecans
- 1/4 c. packed brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 2 tbsp. butter
- 1/2 c. water or apple juice
- 2 - 5.3 oz. containers Muller Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt in Vanilla Bean
Instructions
- Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a small bowl, combine cherries, pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Cut the apples in half vertically. Using a spoon or melon baller, scoop out the core of the apples to hollow out the middle - just the core and seeds.
- Set the apples in the baking dish, with the hollows facing up.
- Divide the brown sugar filling evenly among the apples, spooning it into the hollows.
- Place a 1/2 tbsp. pat of butter on top of each apple in the middle.
- Pour the water or apple juice into the bottom of the baking pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 35-40 minutes or until apples are soft and tender.
- Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
- Serve warm, with Muller Vanilla Bean yogurt spooned generously over the top!
