Isn't it funny how certain smells can take you right back to a moment in time? Well, the aroma that exudes from these Yummy Baked Apples is one that takes us back to our elementary school days, visiting our local apple orchard. It was truly the best day of the school year! We were always so excited to bring our apple collection home to mom, knowing that dessert that evening would be something very special. With the tender baked apples branching out into a delightful melted field of sugar and cinnamon harmony, we simply could not wait for this season of dessert! But you don't have to wait for the orchards to open up. Hop on the bus and get these Yummy Baked Apples on the road to your after-dinner, or anytime really, dessert experience. Take it from us, these will be the best dessert of the year!
