OPEN SLIDESHOW
Meet Hasselback apples, the most impressive dessert you have to bake this fall. Crisps, crumbles, pies, and baked apples are all fine, but this is the one that really stands out in a crowd.

Firm, sweet apples open like a fan, allowing the sweet cinnamon and brown sugar streusel to sink between each slice. Why not go all out and top this holiday-ready treat with a scoop of vanilla ice cream?

Like a Baked Apple — but Even More Impressive

If you love baked apples, or any dessert that involves cooked apples for that matter, then Hasselback apples should be on your must-make list. They work just as well for a weeknight treat as they do for a dinner party dessert.

Choose Large, Firm Apples

The apple is the star of the plate, and the key to making it shine is selecting the right variety.


When it comes to baking apples — especially with this dessert, where structure is so important — not every variety will work. Hasselback apples work best with very firm apple varieties, like Honey Crisp and Pink Lady. These apples are sturdy enough to hold their shape during baking, whereas other varieties — such as Cortland or McIntosh — will cook down too much during baking, leaving the thin apple slices to disintegrate and fall flat.

A note on size: The larger, the better. It's one more way to make this dessert even more impressive.

Cut Thin Slits in the Apple, but Not Too Thin

What makes this dessert really stand out are the slices over the top of the apple that cause it to fan out after baking.

For the best results, cut slices about 1/4-inch apart. Even very firm apples will cook down a little bit during baking, and when the slices are too thin, they begin to melt into each other, leaving the apple more droopy than fan-like.

How To Make Hasselback Apples

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Melt the butter: In a small saucepan (or in a small bowl over low heat in the microwave) melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Once cooled stir in 1 tablespoon brown sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside.
Peel the apples to remove all the skin.
Slice the apples in half from top to bottom.
Core the apples: Use a melon baller or spoon to remove the apple cores.
Cut slits the apples, leaving the bottom in tact: Place the apples core-side down on a cutting board. Cut slits into the apple, stopping just before you cut through so that the slices stay connected at the bottom of the apple. Space the slices 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch apart.
Brush the apples with melted butter and sugar: Stir the butter and sugar to re-combine if they've separated. Use a pastry brush to spread the butter and sugar over top of the apples, working the mixture into as many of the slits as possible.
Bake the apples: Spray a thin layer of cooking spray over the inside of a baking dish. Place the apples in the baking dish, flat-side down. Cover the baking dish with tinfoil, and bake for 20 minutes.
Prepare the streusel: Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter into cubes. Add it to a bowl, along with 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, flour, oats, and a pinch of salt. Use your fingers or a fork to blend the ingredients together.
Add the streusel to the apples: After the apples have fished baking remove the baking dish from the oven. Use a fork to carefully spread the streusel over top of the apples. Work as much of the streusel as possible into the folds of the apples.
Increase the oven temperature and continue baking: Increase the oven temperature to 425°. Place the baking dish back in the oven and bake, uncovered, for another 15 minutes.
Cool the apples: Remove the baking dish from the oven. Cool the apples for about 5 minted before serving.
