Ingredients
  

For the Bake

  • 1/2 cup maple syrup You can substitute with honey or brown sugar for a different flavor.
  • 3 medium apples (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Granny Smith) Choose Fuji for extra sweetness or Granny Smith for a tart kick.
  • 1/2 cup walnuts Pecans or almonds make great substitutes if you prefer.
