Servings: 6
Cost: $8.36, $1.39 per Serving
Ingredients
- 6 Large Red Apples
- ½ cup Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter softened
- ⅓ cup Walnuts finely chopped
- ½ cup Water
- Ice Cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Wash and dry the apples. Using an apple corer or a paring knife, remove the core from each apple, leaving the bottom intact to create a cavity for the filling.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar, cinnamon, softened butter, and chopped walnuts until well combined.
- Spoon the filling evenly into the center of each apple.
- Arrange the apples in a baking dish and pour the water into the bottom of the dish around the apples.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender when pierced with a knife but still hold their shape.
- Let the apples cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Spoon the pan juices over the apples and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
Notes
- Firmer apples such as Honeycrisp, Gala, Fuji, or Pink Lady work best because they hold their shape while baking.
- Baking time may vary depending on the size and variety of the apples.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or oven before serving.
