Ingredients

  • 4 Large sweet cooking apples
  • 1/2 cup craisins (sweetened dried cranberries) (may substitute with raisins)
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 Tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 Tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/3 cup water (may substitute with apple juice)

Optional

  • ice cream or half and half

Directions

Core the apples. If you do not have an apple corer, you only need a sharp paring knife. Make a small circle in the top of the apple. Continue to work in the circle, digging out the apple, until you have removed the core. Do not go through the bottom.
Baked Apples - coring the apples
eel a strip from around the middle of the apples. Combine the craisins, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Spoon into the centres of the apples.
Baked Apples - stuffing the apples
Pour water into the casserole. Bake apples in a 350 deg F oven for 40 - 45 minutes or until the apples are tender, basting occasionally.
Serve warm, plain or with ice cream or half and half.
