Yes, it’s winter. Seriously cold winter.
What better time to bake apples?
I used my sister’s method and added a few tablespoons of Balsamic vinegar in the bottom which I later spooned onto the apples’ core opening. Nothing else. No cinnamon or raisins or butter or sugar. Granny Smiths snd Balsamic vinegar.
I used an apple shaped Glasbake Vintage baking dish (a gift from Molly) and baked them at 350F for an hour.
The kitchen was warm from the oven and the whole house smelled delicious. Looks like an electric element but it’s gas.
Those do look good Ruth!
We could have one together when we share our coffee?
Most definitely! 😊 I would love to meet you someday in person.
They look so good. I can smell them here in Texas!
Love the baking dish, and the apples look delicious! My mom always made baked apples in the winter.
Look so good! Thank you for sharing, Ruth. 🙂
Apples are one of our favorite fruits. We have one each day to keep the……. Okay, you get it. We do have at least one though. These look especially tasty and comforting on these frigid days. Thanks Ruth.
Looks and sounds like the perfect snack on a cold, winter day.
I will try that – so simple! Last night I made my winter comfort dinner: Oven roasted Italian sausage, sweet potatoes and Granny Smith apples. I’ll blend the leftover veggies with chicken broth for a soup. JB
I wish I had some of your delicious baked Granny Smiths here
The easiest dish to prepare but so delicious.
Can’t beat easy and delicious 😋
Thanks Lisa.
Does the balsamic sweeten as it warms? I’ve never heard of this preparation…
It makes the combination mouthwatering. I’d add a bit of water to the Balsamic, it really cooked down. I’m not sure the description would be sweet but incredibly satisfying.
Interesting… I may have to give this a try.
Bet the house smelled really good!
It really did. Thanks Amy .
YUM ….
I’d love to try one of these with custard, sadly no oven just a microwave.
Can you get Bramleys? Much much better than Granny Smiths for baking!! I have just used a Bramley apple to make apple cake tonight.
Sounds delicious but have never seen them. Will look though.
Mmmmmmm, yummy!!
I am not just saying this – but I needed this recipe – I need a healthy – no sugar added something that is also warm
and hubs just brought home a bag of granny smiths (we hardly buy apples cos the sugar content is so high, but I like to give apples to the mail lady)
anyhow, can’t wait to try this

Looks and sounds delicious, Ruth, just right for a Midwest winter delight.

Righteous!
So simple and yet so elegant? Yes.
I love granny smiths and I love balsamic vinegar, and most of all, I love simple.
Gracias!
