Brown Sugar Apples. So, for this batch, i used organic apples, freshly squeezed lemon juice, cinnamon sticks, and a rich organic brown sugar made by wholesome sweeteners that i bought at our health food store last week. So the difference in light brown and dark brown sugars are how much molasses they have.

Soft apples, like mcintosh apples, will become mushy while cooking, so make sure your apples are crisp. 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter 1 cup light brown sugar, packed 1/4 cup milk 1/2 tsp vanilla 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar instructions. 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice.
Brown sugar cinnamon baked apples are crisp apples quartered and mixed with rich brown sugar and cinnamon seasoning then baked to perfection.add ice cream on top for a decadent fall dessert!
Pour apple mixture into prepared pie shell. Cut decorative vents in crust with small cookie cutters, or just slit it in a few places with a knife. Bake 1 hour, or until apples are tender. The brown sugar adds sweetness while cooking but it’s more for caramelization.
