Something Sweet and Simple


Snacks for a last minute planned get-together are always a dilemma. You are tired after a long day, don't have time to run to the store, but feel like more than chips and dip. I was caught in this scenario a couple days ago when hosting a last minute game night with a few friends. We were thinking about what we could make, when we discovered a crate of apples a roommate had left over.

We decided to make baked apple slices (along the lines of OhmsandFarads's apple toast). It was something super easy and quick for which we had all the ingredients laying around. We peeled, cored, and sliced 8 apples, and laid them in a baking dish with cinnamon, brown sugar, and sprinkle of nutmeg. No recipe. No precise amounts. Within minutes we had the tray in the oven at 375 degrees. We left the apples in the oven for about 30mins, and stirred up the mixture about half way through.
After letting it cool for a bit, we all dug in...and it was delicious! Disappeared in minutes!

AND we spent the evening playing Apples to Apples...for an Apple themed night!
