Healthy Baked Apples (tastes like apple crisp!)

In last weeks Bountiful Baskets loot we got a big bunch of green apples. Now, neither me or my husband is a huge fan of green apples, as we prefer fuji, gala, pink ladies, etc. the red/yellow kinds. What to do with 6 green apples that nobody is going to eat? Gina's Skinny Recipes: Baked Apples


They were really delicious and just exactly like apple crisp, which I happen to LOVE apple crisp! I warmed one up for breakfast this morning, even though it's supposed to be a "dessert".
