Recipe: Baked Cinnamon Apples
Ingredients:
– 4 large good baking apples, such as Rome Beauty, Golden Delicious, or Jonagold
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon
– 1/4 cup chopped pecans
– 1/4 cup currants or chopped raisins
– 1 Tbsp butter
– 3/4 cup boiling water
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Rinse and dry the apples. Using a sharp paring knife or an apple corer, cut out the cores, leaving the bottom 1/2 inch of the apples intact.
3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, currants or chopped raisins, and pecans.
4. Put the apples in a baking dish and stuff each apple with the sugar stuffing mixture.
5. Place a dot of butter (a quarter of the total amount) on top of the sugar.
6. Pour the boiling water into the bottom of the baking dish.
7. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-45 minutes, until the apples are cooked through and tender, but not overcooked and mushy.
8. When done, remove the apples from the oven and baste them with the juices from the pan.
