Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 cup rolled oats (not instant)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Pinch of ground cloves
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
4 McIntosh apples
1 large egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon milk
Whipped cream or ice cream (optional)
Fresh mint leaves, as garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon brown sugar over a baking sheet. Combine oats, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, and spices in the work bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth. Add half the almonds and process until finely chopped. Add remaining almonds; process until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a shallow bowl.
  • Peel apples and cut into quarters. Cut out cores. Dip apples into egg mixture, letting excess drip off. Coat well with the oatmeal-nut mixture and transfer to prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until soft. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired. Garnish with mint leaves.
