Notes
The baked apples listed in the recipe card is a half portion of my honey baked apples recipe. I actually prefer to make full-batch of my honey baked apples (following the linked recipe). I use about half of the apples for the crostini appetizer and save the other half to enjoy on their own (usually with ice cream). The images in the step-by-step instructions shows a full-batch of apples in a 9x13 try.
