Cinnamon Apple Dip

This quick apple dip is the perfect snack on a chilly evening. Make sure that you make enough to be able to make some Oven "Fried" Apples!
  • 4 T. cornstarch
  • 2 T. brown sugar
  • 2 1/2 c. apple cider
  • 6 T. maple syrup
  • 4 tsp. lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • Dash ground cloves
  • Dash ground allspice
  • 2 T. butter
  • 8 apples, cored and sliced
Combine the cornstarch and brown sugar in a medium saucepan. Stir in the apple cider, maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon, cloves and allspice. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir an additional 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the butter; stir until melted and blended into the dip. Serve warm with the sliced apples.
  • Yields: 10-12 servings
  • Preparation Time: 15 minutes
 

Oven "Fried" Apples
Anyone who loves traditional fried apples will love this easy rendition that lowers fat and simplifies the process by baking them in the oven. Great on their own or as a topping over waffles, ice cream or pork chops.
  • 4 apples, cored and sliced (I like to use Macintosh apples)
  • 1/2 recipe Cinnamon Apple Dip (see above)
In a medium casserole, combine the apples and Cinnamon Apple Dip. Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until the apples are tender and the sauce is bubbly.
  • Yields: 4 servings
  • Preparation Time: 30 minutes
