baked apple with crisp topping
This baked apple met and went beyond my expectations!! My first bite was a "WOW" moment. The crisp on top combined with the warm apple mixed with the cherry preserves in the middle...yeah this is awesome! I may never make a pan of apple crisp again, who needs to when this is so easy and delicious! I cut the recipe for the topping in half and made 2 whole apples. I also didn't half the apples, it was more like taking about 2 inches or so off the top, coring the inside and filling with 1 Tablespoon of the cherry preserves.
