Cinnamon-Crusted Baked Apples (Weight Watchers)

Recipe from Crazy MomCat

This is a regular side dish/dessert at my house. It’s a Weight Watchers recipe, so it is also guilt free! (Unless you put it on top of ice cream, which I have tried on occassion. Ha!) It reheats great or is good cold the next morning and I’ve also made the recipe with pears and it was good too. Enjoy!!!
