Totally delicious. I made this the other night becaue I really love apple desserts (more than chocolate). I was looking for something easy but a little different from anything I had tried before. This fit the bill. The apples baked up soft and tender and honey, the amaretto and orange juice was scrump-ump-tious!! It had a nice crunchy topping, too. Thanks Dawn. This is something I would make again.

Oh Yummm! I made a couple of (to me) minor changes is using Frangelico in place of the Amaretto because I had the Frangelico and adding some chopped hazelnuts on top of the apples. I added the nuts to tie in the liqueur and used 3/4 cup of Splenda for the sugar. The orange juice blended beautifully. The apple slices baked perfectly in the given time, holding their shape and not going mushy while being very tender and delicious. The crust/topping shared center stage with the apples. It colored ever so lightly but had that wonderful almost melty tender quality while being crisp. The topping held together in cutting (I had to break a piece off with my fingers to get any kind of shot of what lay beneath it for the pic). Really an outstanding recipe that I'll be making again and again. Made for Photo Forum's "An Apple A Day" event.

I?m ?originally from Texas, but now live in Florida. Still gotta have that spice though....love chipotle peppers, habaneros, and jalapenos. This is a picture of myself & my 2 daughters taken in Dec'06. I am working on my graduate degree, & still work as a nurse prn. When I'm not cooking and eating what I cook... I head for the gym to work out. As far as cookbooks, I love the church/ community cookbooks, where someone has dug out old handwritten recipes by granny and shared them with others-those are the best kind. If I had a month off, I'd for sure go hiking, would love to visit Australia and New Zealand.?
