Description
Warm baked apples filled with creamy pumpkin pie filling, the perfect fall dessert.
Ingredients
6 apples (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Granny Smith)
1 cup pumpkin purée (unsweetened)
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
½ cup heavy cream or coconut milk
Whipped cream (optional topping)
Crushed graham crackers or chopped nuts (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper.
2. Core the apples, leaving the bottom intact to form a hollow cup.
3. In a bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, brown sugar, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, egg, and cream until smooth.
4. Spoon the pumpkin mixture evenly into the hollowed apples.
5. Place the apples in the baking dish and bake for 35–40 minutes until tender.
6. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
7. Top with whipped cream and garnish with crushed graham crackers or nuts.
Notes
Best served warm right out of the oven.
You can swap heavy cream with coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
Great for Thanksgiving, fall gatherings, or as a cozy weekend treat.
