How to Make Ginger Baked Apples
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Coat a medium-sized casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Peel apples halfway down from the stem end. Carefully core the apples, being sure not to cut through the bottom.
- Place the cored apples in the prepared casserole dish.
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter and ground ginger until well combined.
- Spoon about half of the ginger-butter mixture into the center of each apple.
- In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, apple cider, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
- Pour the warm syrup evenly over the apples in the casserole dish.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the syrup is bubbly. Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of an apple.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
