These easy baked cinnamon apple slices are the perfect healthy fall dessert!
Preheat oven to 375° F or 190° C.
Core and thinly slice the apples. You can peel if you prefer, but I leave them on.
Place the apples in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Add the maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, lemon juice, and cornstarch on top of the apples. Toss to coat everything evenly. You can also stir the ingredients together separately in a small bowl and pour that on top of the apples.
Place the butter on top of the apple mixture in the pan and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake until the apples are done to your liking, around 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, stirring every 25 minutes or so. You can check for doneness by inserting a fork into a few of the apples.
When the apples are done to your liking, remove from oven and allow to cool for a bit. Serve warm or at room temperature. I like to serve these with either a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or a dollop of homemade whipped cream.
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat before serving.
