Apple desserts can be classified among the most in-demand and frequently made dishes. Apples can be found in almost any kitchen all year round, and in season there are so many of them that home cooks clutch their heads, deciding which apple dessert recipes to choose to please the household.
The Five Most Commonly Used Ingredients in Apple Dessert Recipes:
The simplest apple dessert can be made in a few minutes in the microwave. For it you only need the apples themselves plus sugar or honey. The core is carefully cut out of the fruit and filled with honey or sugar. The peel stays in place. The apples are baked in the oven, slow cooker or microwave until done and served hot. Other delicious fillings for baked apples: cottage cheese, nuts, dried fruit, boiled condensed milk. You can build a puff pastry cap for them. To get an even juicier dessert, not only the core is cut out of the apples but also part of the flesh (it can later be mixed into the filling). Only walls about 1 cm thick are left.
Another simple way is to add apples in pureed form to other desserts: ice cream, smoothies, mousses, jelly, cream, whipped cream or fluffy cottage cheese, yogurt, blancmange and so on. Some of them can also be baked to get a new, rich taste.
In any dessert, apples combine perfectly with cinnamon, natural honey and vanilla. They harmonize with condensed milk, cream, cocoa and chocolate. Apples fit perfectly into almost any baked goods, be it a cake, pie, small pies, pastries, muffins, pancakes, fritters or charlotte. Recently, caramel apples on a stick have become popular in Russia.

If the apple peel is too thick or hard, it is best to peel it off, even if the apple dessert recipe says otherwise. Especially if, when baking, the skin wrinkles and becomes hard to chew. Then you can drizzle the apples with sugar caramel with coloring or chocolate glaze on top.
