Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups store-bought oat granola, such as Bear Naked Maple Pecan
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon plus 1/4 cup sugar
5 crisp apples, such as Fuji or Gala (about 2 1/2 pounds), peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a medium nonreactive and ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the granola, 1 tablespoon of the flour and 1 tablespoon sugar and toss until the sugar is dissolved and the granola is well coated. Transfer to a bowl. (Reserve the skillet.)
  • Pour the apples into the skillet; toss with the pumpkin pie spice, lemon juice and remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are juicy and slightly softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Scatter the reserved granola mixture evenly over the top and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the crisp is bubbling and the apples are tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect granola texture, bake it in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through the baking time. Keep an eye on the granola to prevent burning.
  • For a crunchier granola, spread it out on a baking sheet and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  • To make the granola more flavorful, add a variety of spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger.
  • For a sweeter granola, add honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar.
  • To make the granola healthier, use whole grain oats, nuts, and seeds.
  • Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

An apple granola dessert is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover apples. The combination of sweet apples, crunchy granola, and creamy yogurt is a perfect balance of flavors and textures. This easy-to-make dessert is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
