Frequently asked questions

Can I use other types of apples for this recipe?

Yes, firmer apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well, but softer apples can be used if you prefer a softer texture.

Should the apple slices be peeled before baking?

Peeling is optional. Leaving the peel on adds texture and color, but peel can be removed if preferred.

Can I prepare the apple slices ahead of time?

You can slice the apples and mix the syrup in advance, but bake just before serving to keep apples fresh and prevent browning.
