How to Prepare Autumn Apple and Pear Hasselback Fruit Platter [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Heat oven to 350°F.
Cut apples in pears in half and “Hasselback” by creating thin slices on fruit halves. Be careful not to slice all the way through, cut about 60% of the way through (fruit will soften when baking as well so don’t cut too close to all the way through).
Place apples and pear halves in a baking dish or cast-iron skillet, top with maple syrup, cinnamon, and brown sugar, and cover with aluminum foil. Bake until soft throughout, about 20 minutes.
After fruit is done baking, place on platter or wax paper and top with granola and more maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy!

A scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Seriously, just do it. - Leftovers & Storage: Fruit can be stored for up to five days in refrigerator and reheated when ready to serve.
