Easy Fall Tea-Baked Apples are the ultimate fall dessert!
Tea-Baked Apples

Caramel apples are high on our list of favorite Fall treats at home but for a warm, fruit dessert to cozy up to in chilly weather, baked apples can’t be beaten in my book!

Stuffed with raisins, walnuts, and brown sugar and then poached in green tea, they’re amazing served on their own as well as topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Baked Cinnamon Apples with raisins and walnuts and poached in green tea are the ultimate Fall treat. Serve warm on they're on or topped with ice cream for the perfect after-dinner dessert.

How Do You Make Baked Cinnamon Apples

These baked apples are simple to make; they’re ready to enjoy in five easy steps and in an hour.

  1. Steep the green tea bags in one cup of hot water.
  2. Peel 1/3 of top skin of apples and core apples about 1-inch wide, making sure to keep the base intact. Arrange in a single layer with the peeled side up in  an 8 x 8 baking dish
  3. In a bowl, combine butter and brown sugar. Add the walnuts and raisins. Stuff the mixture into the apples and sprinkle all over top.
  4. Pour brewed green tea all over and around the apples.
  5. Bake, uncovered and basting occasionally, in a 350 F oven for about 50 to 60 minutes or until apples are tender but not mushy.

Baked Apples stuffed with raisins, walnuts, and brown sugar streusel are delicious on their own or topped with ice cream. Perfectly sweet and cinnamon-y, they're the ultimate Fall treat.

What are the Best Apples for Baking?

For the best baking apples, choose a variety with sweet-tart taste and a firm, sturdy flesh that will retain shape and won’t cook down during baking. Here are a few of my favorites:

  • Rome Beauty
  • Braeburn
  • Jonathans
  • Honeycrisp
  • Golden Delicious

Tea-Baked Apples are delicious on its own or topped with ice cream!

How Long to Bake Apples

Bake time depends on the size and variety of apples you use. I find 50 to 60 minutes in a 350 F oven makes for a tender but not mushy texture.
