Method 1: Perfect Texture

• Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
• Chop apples small so they bake evenly.

 

Method 2: Crisp on Top

• Bake on a preheated baking sheet to help the bottom get golden.

 

Method 3: Extra Flavor

• Add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of apple cider for deeper taste.
