How to Make Cinnamon Cream Cheese Apples

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel, core, and halve 4 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji).
  3. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup water, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
  4. Add the apple halves to the saucepan, cut-side down. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until apples are tender but not falling apart, flipping halfway through.
  5. While apples simmer, prepare the cream cheese filling: In a medium bowl, beat together 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 2 tablespoons milk, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/4 cup chopped dates, 1/4 cup chopped pineapple, and 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts.
  6. Remove apples from the saucepan and let cool slightly. Drain excess syrup, reserving the syrup for drizzling later.
  7. Fill the center of each apple half with the cream cheese mixture.
  8. Arrange stuffed apples in a baking dish and drizzle with reserved syrup.
  9. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and filling is slightly warmed.
  10. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with extra syrup, if desired.
