Apple pie in a jar is an easy dessert where you blend all the delicious ingredients from an apple pie together in a jar.
Desserts and baking with apples
Without a doubt, my most favorite fruit on this blog for baking or making desserts is the apple.
From a warm apple pie granola breakfast, creamy apple pie ice cream, skinny apple turnovers or Grandma's Dutch apple pie, there is a lot of choice.
Recipes with apples can be made at any time of the day and I process them in any form. Even at dinner. Fruit with which you can vary endlessly.
- Cookies - Cover the bottom of the glass with crumbled cookies. You can of course bake delicious cookies (such as these German rock cookies that go well with this) or you can use ready-made cookies, like Graham cookies.
- Apples - Any firm apple is suitable for this recipe. I used Elstar apples in this recipe, but Jonagold or Pink Lady are also great choices. When you opt for Granny Smith, the dessert will be a bit fresher.
🔪 Preparation
Step 1 - Prepare the apples
- Peel the apples and cut them into quarters. Remove the core and cut the apple parts into slices. Sprinkle the slices with sugar.
- Then sprinkle them with cinnamon.
Step 2 - Caramelize the apples
Melt the butter in the skillet and place the sugar-coated apple slices in the pan. Bake for three minutes and then flip with a spatula. Bake for another three minutes. Place on a plate and let cool (the latter is not necessarily necessary. You can serve them warm, but the temperature will make the whipped cream less firm).
Also beat the cream with the vanilla extract and the confectioners' sugar until stiff, about four minutes on high speed.
Step 3 - Fill the jar with the first layers
- Divide half of the cookies in the bottom of the glasses.
- Spoon three tablespoons of whipped cream on top.
Step 4 - Add the remaining ingredients
Place three or four baked apples on top. Then make a second layer: cookies, whipped cream and cover with the rest of the caramelized apples. TIP: I sprinkle some additional cinnamon on the apple pie in a jar. Serve right away!
