Here is a tasty recipe for the Halloween weekend. Heck, it’s good anytime of the year.
- 4 Red Sweet Cooking Apples, Rome, McIntosh etc, unpeeled
- 4 teaspoons Brown Sugar
- 4 teaspoons Butter, softened
- 4 teaspoons Nuts of your choice, chopped (I like Black Walnuts)
- 1 teaspoon ground Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground Nutmeg
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Core the apples and halve them. In a small mixing bowl mix the sugar, soft butter, nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg. Take 4 pieces of tinfoil, big enough to fully cover an apple. Place one half of an apple (white cut side up) on the foil. Fill the hollow core of the apples with butter mixture and place the other half of the apple on top. Wrap the filled apple with the foil. Continue with the other 3 apples. Place the wrapped in a small rimmed baking dish. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The apples should be tender. You can spoon any left over butter mixture on the apples right before serving. These are wonderful with ice cream.
