Baked apples are great for dessert, as a side dish, for breakfast, or snacking. Serve them chilled or warm, with or without toping. Top with flavored yogurt, light cream, ice cream, or whipped topping. Use firm apples for baking. Apples vary from region to region. During apple season, use your favorite locally grown apples for best flavor.
