Hi Friends!
Just popping in to share my new favorite Fall dessert with you. As you may recall, I have a plethora of apples to use up. I’ve been trying to think of new things to do with them and this has by far been the best idea i’ve had in a while.
Here’s what you do:
Baked Apple Packets
This simple dessert is a personal-sized packet of pure tasty pleasure.
Ingredients
- 1 small or medium apple, sliced
- 1/4-1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 Tbsp peanut butter
- 1-2 Tbsp chopped pecans
- 1-2 Tbsp granola
- 1 scoop of ice cream or yogurt
- chocolate chips if desired
Instructions
- Arrange the apple slices in the center of a piece of foil.
- Top with cinnamon, plop the PB right on top and add pecans and granola.
- Bring two sides together and fold to seal. Fold in both of the other sides to seal packet shut.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven, open packet, top with ice cream or yogurt and chocolate chips and serve!
This recipe can easily be double/tripled etc depending on how many people you have! Don’t be afraid to experiment with other fruit either. I’m trying it with pears next 🙂 Peaches would also be a great option for the summer!
Enjoy!

I love this! I’ve done something similar with whole apples… how did I never think to do it with slices?! And peanut butter! Genius. 🙂
Oh, this looks yummy! I have a plethora – gotta love that word – of apples too, so this is a great idea. Thank you!
wowwwww! Yummmmyyyyy! this look ssoooo delicious!
I eat an apple a day (with lunch) so clearly love them, but have never had one baked! I know, I know …. shocking. I’ll blame it on living in Florida heat 🙂
nice touch with the chocolate chips. I have butterscotch chips that would melt heavenly on this. oh ya!
I’d like to make this for breakfast this morning!!
Ohh I love the sounds of these! Must try with my plethora of farmers market apples 🙂
This looks like something the kids would have fun putting together! We’ll have to try it this weekend.
yum!! looks delicious AND easy-love that.
woah woah woah. this looks UNREAL. lucky for me, I already have all the ingredients 🙂
sounds like it’s your lucky day!
Umm those look YUM!! Definitely going to have to try them 🙂
This looks amazing! Reminds me of apple pie without the crust! I’m definitely trying this out!
Holy smack that looks good. Almond Butter, apples, and cinnamon are a fav quick snack for me.
YUM! And yes – peaches would be fabulous – maybe thrown on the grill – for the summer 🙂
yes! peaches for the win!
I’ve been waiting for this recipe since I saw the picture on Instagram. YUM. That’s all 🙂
enjoy!
I love love love baked apples but why haven’t I thought of doing them in packets like this? You are a genius Lindsay 🙂
awe, thanks friend!
These look so good! I wonder if they’d work with a banana instead of apples. I know there’s a recipe out there to throw something similar to this using a banana on the grill. Mmm…I’ll have to give this one a try for sure!
i think it would def work with a banana!
Hello yum!!! Your Instagram pics always make me drool — so I’m always happy when you share your easy recipes! This looks like another great keeper!!!
Oh i cannot wait to try this SO brilliant!!

The combo of the peanut butter AND ice cream on top at the end – yum!
Yum! I just made this for dinner er dessert. I put the choc chips in before baking so they got nice n melty. The pb in this is great! So good it doesn’t really even need the ice cream!
