Vegan Baked Apples
Naturally sweet apples with a touch of cinnamon, vanilla, and coconut.
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 45 minutes mins
Total Time 1 hour hr
- 6 apples (try Honeycrisp, Jonamac, or Ida Red)
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp virgin coconut oil melted
- 1/2 cup water
Preheat the oven to 350°F
Core and slice each apple into 16 thin pieces. I do not peel the apples; this is where most of the nutrition lies.
Place the apples into a 9x13 inch glass baking dish and toss with cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and coconut oil. Add 1/2 cup water to the dish.
Bake in the oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. The water will concentrate and become syrup-like. If the dish seems dry when you stir, add another couple of tablespoons of water.
The apples are done when they are easily pierced with a fork and melt in your mouth.
Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle the syrup from the baking dish over the top.
Serve warm.
