We’ve all had cinnamon apples, cooked until syrupy and stuffed into a pie or served atop ice cream. Yum! Well, these Bacon Baked Apples take the cinnamon-sugar sauce and stuff it inside the apples instead for a fun twist. These make for a quick, delectable treat perfect for fall and winter! Use green or red apples and for those of you who really want to go buck wild, you can add other filling items like nuts and raisins to taste.
