Note

This recipe combines sweet and savory elements. The Parmesan cheese adds a salty, umami contrast to the sweet apples.

Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for best texture, as they hold up well during baking.

If a sweeter taste is preferred, consider adding a small amount of sugar substitute or maple syrup, keeping diabetic dietary needs in mind.

Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
