Ingredients
- 3
large baking apples, halved vertically and cored
- 6 Tbsp.
melted butter, divided
- 1/4 cup
granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
- 1 tsp.
ground cinnamon
- 2/3 cup
old-fashioned rolled oats
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
Warm caramel, for drizzling
Directions
- Step 1Preheat oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place each apple half flat side down and use a paring knife to create thin slices all the way across, making sure to stop slicing right before the bottom of the apple (so it stays together as one piece). Transfer apple halves to prepared baking sheet.
- Step 2Lightly brush apple tops with 2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle each with sugar.
- Step 3Bake until apples are soft and caramelized, about 25 minutes.
- Step 4Remove from oven. In a small bowl, combine remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, and oats. Once cool enough to handle, spoon mixture inside apple slits.
- Step 5Return to oven and bake 10 minutes more.
- Step 6Top each with a scoop of ice cream, then drizzle with caramel before serving.
