Hasselback Apples with Toffee / Oat Strusel Topping step by step
Preheat oven to 400. Spray a baking dish big enough to hold apples in one layer with non stick spray.
Cut apples in half lengthwise through stem. Peel and remove core, keeping apple half intact. Place each apple half cut side down on cutting board. Place chop sticks or wooden spoon handles on each side of apple and make thin slices down apple using the chopsticks as a way not to cut all the way throughapple.
Combine the light brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Place apples , cut side down in prepare d pan, brush apples with melted butter.
Sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon mixture.
Cover with foil and bake about 20 minutes until apples are just tender.

Cut the rest of the butter into cubes and add the remaining brown sugar, cinnamon, gluten free flour and gluten free oats and some sea salt. Carefully fan open the apple halves and with a fork or spoon. Contrasting with the moist cake crumb, we have a delightfully crunchy and dangerously addictive walnut oat streusel topping. (These Coffee Cake Muffins also have delicious streusel toppings.). Although there isn't oatmeal in the cake, I like using oats for the streusel topping, because they provide the most pleasing texture, and their flavor is a classic match with the cinnamon and apples in.
