These Bloomin’ Apples are another one of my new Thanksgiving recipes. They are super delicious and they look fantastic too! I adore the flavor combination in this dessert – caramel, apples, cinnamon, and melted butter combine to make a perfect post-dinner dish! My top tip to stop your apples from turning brown, squeeze lemon juice all over the cut side to prevent browning.
To make these apples for Thanksgiving dessert, start by mixing melted butter with sugars and ground cinnamon. Slice the top off of each apple then scoop out the core using a melon baller or teaspoon. Make two circular cuts in each apple and place them in a small baking dish. Stuff two caramel squares into the center of each apple. Brush melted cinnamon butter mixture on top and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until the apples are tender. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel.
To make Bloomin’ Apples, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 375 °F. Lightly coat a medium baking dish with cooking spray.
Whisk 4 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 tablespoon of packed brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and ½ a teaspoon of ground cinnamon together in a small bowl.
Use a knife to slice the top off each of the apples. Scoop out the core from each apple using a melon baller or a teaspoon. Make two circular cuts in each apple using a paring knife. Place the apples cut side down on a cutting board and slice each one crosswise but be careful you do not cut through the core.
Place the cut apples in a small baking dish.
Stuff two caramel squares into the center of each apple and brush the top with the melted butter mixture.
Bake the apples in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes.
Serve the baked apples warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel.
These Bloomin' Apples are sweet, tender, warm and delicious. The perfect Thanksgiving dessert! Try it soon and tag your baking posts with #cookmerecipes if you make this.
