Baked Apples with Ice-Cream

Baked Apples with Ice-Cream

Does anything scream SUMMER better than ice-cream? I don’t think so and this one is so easy that every now and then I literally just throw it together. Unless you’re counting your macros or calories, you can just “eyeball it” on the measurements (as my mom would say) . I’m sharing how I lighten mine up though, the brands listed aren’t sponsored, they’re just what I like.

Here’s what you need:

Apples (I like to use Honey Crisp)

Lemon juice

Raisins

Golden Raisins

Chopped Walnuts

Brown sugar (I use a brown sugar, stevia blend)

Butter (I use an Irish butter, olive oil blend from Costco)

Ice-Cream (I use vanilla Halo-Top)

Pam (coconut oil)

Directions:

-Fill a bowl with water and add some lemon juice to it.

-Core your apples and cut them in half & drop them in the lemon water

-Melt the butter (I don’t use a lot, maybe ½ cup for 4 apples)

-Take your apples out and place in a baking dish sprayed with Pam, skin side down

-Top with raisins, walnuts and brown sugar, then drizzle butter over the top

-Cover dish with foil and bake in 350 degree over for 40-50 minutes. I like mine pretty soft so just check them and take them out when they’re done to your taste

-Once they’re done to your liking, take them out and cool slightly before adding them to your favorite ice-cream

This is such a great summer desert! My family loves it and it’s a desert that doesn’t wreck my macros!
