Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 good-quality apples ((I like to use red apples, but baking apples, such as Granny Smith, work great to!))
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar (, packed)
  • 2 Tablespoons butter (, room temperature)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Ice cream (, for topping, optional)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Use a paring knife or apple corer to remove the stem and seeds from the apples, making a deep hole where the filling will go. 
  • Combine the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon in a small bowl and mix well to combine. Add the nuts. Spoon mixture evenly into each of the apples. 
  • Add 1/4 cup of water to a baking dish and place apples on top.
  • Bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until apples are tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. 
  • Spoon the sauce drippings from the pan over the apples. Serve with ice cream, if desired.
