These soft cinnamon apples have just two ingredients and are ready in 30 minutes in a rice cooker. They turn a plethora of crispy fall apples into bite-size pieces that taste like apple pie filling!
I am always on the hunt for:
1) Apple recipes in the fall when I have a plethora of them in my fridge
2) Recipes that baby Birch can eat that don’t require teeth
You can’t exactly gum into a fresh, crunchy apple. But these soft cinnamon apples melt in your mouth!
The Trick Is Using A Rice Cooker
If you don’t have a rice cooker you can make these in the oven or even a crockpot. But the rice cooker is the perfect blend of hands-off and quick. Actually, I learned this technique from Emily years ago and make these apples every fall! I have a Zojirushi rice cooker and love it. I am sure you could Instant Pot these too – but I am not sure of the exact cooking settings for that.
To Peel Or Not To Peel
I don’t peel much when cooking – I actually like the texture of potato and apple skins. But when making this for kids you’ll want to peel the apples. Trust me. Kids cannot handle a little skin. (I actually remember freaking out about baked potato skins when I was young and my dad saying “It’s the best part!” Now that I am nearing 40, I agree with him!!)
Your whole house will smell amazing!

This does not pertain to the recipe, sorry! I saw your Instagram story last night and wanted to thank you for having the courage to post that. I know you have conservative readers who won’t agree but that did not stop you from voicing your opinion. I am so scared to post anything remotely political on social media because of my south GA friends/family. I now live in Atlanta, in a blue county, with my wife of eight years and our almost seven year old daughter. We have never faced any issues being a same sex couple in our area but we still see the state or our nation and it causes fear. Our daughter is just now starting to discover that it wasn’t always okay for her moms to be married which has led to conversations about how people of different religions and skin color haven’t always been (still aren’t?) accepted. I applaud you for speaking your mind without fear of backlash. The post really touched me as one of your long time readers. I’m tempted to post it myself because the words are so true. Also, congrats VA!

Hi from NYC, Kath — I’m a long-time reader but this is my first ever comment! I second what Katie said — the Instagram post was spot-on and needs to be said over and over (loudly!).
And while I’m here, a quick note of thanks for taking us readers along on your journey for all these years. I’ve struggled with depression for a while–luckily doing much better lately–and had an amicable but still tough divorce right around when you did. Your experiences and your balanced and well-prioritized lifestyle have been an inspiring example for me throughout.
