RECIPE: Baked Cinnamon Apple Fries
Ingredients
- 2 Apples
- 1/2 Tbsp Butter or Margarine
- 1 dash Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Peel apples (this is optional – I like them with the skin, but my toddler prefers without), and slice apples into approximately 1/2-inch slivers (or "fries").
- Melt butter in small bowl, and toss apples with the butter.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon, toss to disperse.
- Place apples on baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for approximately 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
