I used Juicy Juice brand apple juice for this recipe, and it turned out wonderfully!! -JuicyBunch Member

Delicious!!! I added just a sprinkle of splenda to the fig newton cinnamon mixture. It was a great fall treat! I will be making these again! YUMMY!

~*I LOVE Baked Apples! But I was getting tired of the "traditional kind" that you can always get. So I thought I'd mix it up a bit. I JUST made a few batches from this recipe and the "Easy Candied Baked Apples" recipe as well. -I LOVED THEM BOTH! So that's when I decided to put both those two recipes togther into one great big mixed up batch of baked apples. -THIS was by far one of the BEST and most enjoyed ideas I've come up with in a while!! My "Apple Lover" girlfriends keep inviting themselves over begging for more of these fantastic appled treats. LOL

I did not care for this recipe. I used two different apples. The first time I used a red (unknown type) apple and it tasted very bitter. The second time I added brown sugar to sweeten it but I still didn't like it. I also used a reddish/yellow apple (unknown type) & that ended up tasting like a pear. Maybe I baked it too long.

This is one of the best baked apple recipes I've tried! My family loves the fig newtons inside.

I love baked apples when I lived in Wisconsin as mom would always make them. Haven't had them in years. I used this recipe and loved it. Will keep it handy so I can make more.

Even though I haven't made it yet I am going to. I loved baked apples and am always looking to try to make it a little differently.
