After school snack time is a very important part of our day.

My girls and I reconnect, chat about our day, and sometimes just settle in with a good book and some yummy food.

One of our favorite snacks in the fall is baked apples.

We’ve always got a bowl full of apples and tend to indulge in them a lot during September and October.

How to make your baked apples snack

Slice and peel all of your apples. I usually slice them the same as if I were serving them raw.

If you have one of those nifty apple corer and slicer gadgets, use that. Your apples will be the perfect size.

Throw your apples in a bowl with your brown sugar and cinnamon.

Mix them up until your apples slices are evenly coated.

*Note: we love the taste of cinnamon, so feel free to adjust the amount of cinnamon to your tastes.

After your apples are coated, put them in an 8×8 square baking pan.

Put them in a 375 degree oven for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, your apples are starting to get juicy and your house will smell like apple pie. Yummy! Stir the apples and pop them in the oven for 10 minutes more.

Now it’s time to eat! For a special treat, we love to put a little whipped cream on top.

My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
