Despite looking suspiciously like it’s
fresh out of the corner bakery, I can guarantee that there’s absolutely
no flour or eggs involved in this recipe. It’s quite simply a baked
apple that’s not only ridiculously tasty, but also pretty healthy!
Just a single tablespoon of butter and sugar are needed to prepare this
mouthwatering dessert, and in my opinion, using just a little butter and
sugar is just as satisfying as using heaps!
The best part about this recipe? It takes less than 5 minutes to
prepare! Then, you can go ahead and take a quick nap or a relaxing bath,
while your oven’s busy softening the apples and caramelizing the sauce!
