Baked Apples

From About.com

This easy recipe for baked apples makes a nice side dish or dessert in the fall when apples are plentiful. These are perfect as part of your family's Thanksgiving dinner, too.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4-5 apples, preferably Gala or Macintosh
  • Brown sugar
  • 4-5 cinnamon sticks
  • Vanilla
  • Butter (could substitute margarine)

Preparation:

Core the apples and place in a baking dish. Place a cinnamon stick down in the center of the apple and then fill the center with brown sugar. Take about a 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla and drizzle across the brown sugar, then coat the top of the apple in butter and bake in a 350 degree oven for approximately 20-30 minutes or until apples are tender but not mushy.

The apples are great alone or served with a little whip cream, ice cream or caramel sauce. - MarshaSue
