Baked apples: sweetness in simplicity. Apples are always so good and versatile and lend themselves to the preparation of a thousand and one Desserts with apples. They are the fruit that is never missing in my fridge in every season of the year. But is it true that “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”? Yes, the apple is an almost perfect natural supplement. It’s rich in fiber, perfect for keeping blood sugar in check, rich in antioxidants and composed of 85% water. Many reasons to always keep one handy and use them in the kitchen to prepare a special dessert. It’s always hard to give up a slice of Apple Cake, but also special Mini Tarts with apples and jam. And if you love Desserts with apples you can’t miss my recipe for Soft Apple Cookies so good they melt in your mouth. Baked apples are not a dessert that tries to amaze with special effects or complicated preparations; they are a return to childhood, a scent that evokes rainy afternoons, lazy Sundays and that maternal care that comes through the warmth of a little ceramic bowl. Preparing apples and baking them is a ritual of aromas: cinnamon that pairs with sugar, the skin that cracks just enough to reveal pulp turned into cream, and that caramelized juice that settles at the bottom of the baking dish, ready to be collected with a spoon. I added sprigs of marjoram to my apples, an aromatic herb I really like, but you can replace it with sprigs of rosemary, mint or even powdered ginger. It’s the little sweet or snack for those who know that true happiness sometimes only needs a bit of warmth and smells of honey and cinnamon. The baked apple is the dessert that needs no introduction; it’s proof that often simplicity can be infinitely better than any complicated pastry. Let’s hurry to the kitchen and prepare together some delicious Cinnamon Baked Apples
