Chocolate Butter Baked Apples

Cooking Difficulty: Easy to Medium

Serving Size: 6 servings (half an apple each)

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 25-30 minutes

Ingredients:

  1. 3 Large apples, such as Honeycrisp, Braeburn, or Granny Smith
  2. 4 Tbsp. Chocolate Better Butter
  3. 1 C. Rolled oats
  4. 3 Tbsp. Cinnamon Brown Sugar Better Butter, melted
  5. 1/4 tsp. Salt
  6. 6 Scoops of vanilla ice cream or preferred flavor

Instructions:

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F. 
  2. Wash and dry the apples. Slice each apple in half from stem to base. With a spoon or melon baller, scoop out the seeds and create a shallow well in the center of each half, ensuring not to pierce through the skin.
  3. Generously spoon the Chocolate Better Butter into the well of each apple half.
  4. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the rolled oats with the melted Cinnamon Brown Sugar Better Butter and salt. Mix until the oats are well-coated with the butter mixture.
  5. Heap the oat topping mixture onto each chocolate butter-filled apple half. Press the topping gently to ensure it sticks. 
  6. Lay the apple halves in a baking dish with a bit of water at the base to keep them moist during baking.
  7. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the apples turn soft and the oat topping turns golden.
  8. Remove the baking dish and set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
  9. Plate an apple half and complement it with a scoop of ice cream. Enjoy!
