How to Make Baked Apple Slices With Peanut Butter Crumble

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
