Description

Baked apples filled with a sweet and savory mixture of brie, dried cranberries, and pecans, topped with a crunchy maple pecan streusel. A perfect fall dessert or side dish.


Ingredients

  • 4 large baking apples (Honeycrisp or Gala)
  • 4 oz brie, rind removed and cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Core apples and hollow out the center, leaving about 1/2 inch of flesh at the bottom. Score the skin around the equator to prevent bursting.
  2. In a small bowl, mix brie, cranberries, and 1/4 cup pecans. Stuff the mixture into the apples.
  3. In another bowl, combine remaining pecans, oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and butter. Mix until crumbly. Stir in maple syrup. Top each apple with the crunch mixture.
  4. Place apples in a baking dish and add 1/4 cup water to the bottom. Bake for 30-35 minutes until apples are tender and topping is golden. Serve warm.
