These fun wontons are an unusual way to highlight fresh picked apples. Head to the orchard and get ready for a great fall dessert. The apples are flavored with brown sugar, fresh lemon juice, and ground cinnamon. Simply fold up the apple filling in store-bought wonton wrappers, then let them bake away in the oven until they're a beautiful golden brown, which should only take about 15 minutes (no frying required!). Sift powdered sugar on top and serve with vanilla ice cream on the side as the best finishing touches ever. This is the sweet, creative type of dessert that we can definitely get behind.
