About

When Thanksgiving rolls around, Johnny doesn't just whip out any old apple dish. Oh no, he goes for big, and that means his famous Johnny's Apple Bake. This pioneer of fruit flavor is filled with jammy apples touched with the magical warmth of cinnamon and the richness of butter. Then those apples get into the festive spirit with a crunchy, brown sugar and oat streusel for wonderfully added texture and sweetness. Johnny's Apple Bake will get everyone back to the table for dessert, no matter if they've already said they can't possibly eat another bite!
