Baked Stuffed Apples in the Oven
Description
The recipe won't take much time. If you love American apple pie, you'll definitely enjoy this dessert too. To be honest, I love stuffed apples and often prepare them with cottage cheese, raisins, and prunes, but I've never tried them with this particular filling before. And that was a mistake—apples and cinnamon, in my opinion, are a perfect combination. The dessert gets its original touch from the lattice made of puff pastry on top of the apples, which makes the flavor even more similar to apple pie. This is the interesting dessert I ended up with. Serve it chilled.
