#1116 - Baked Apples

(by Shirley McNevich)

4 baking apples
2 TBSP Domino's dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/3 cup water

Wash the apples and core them--DO NOT PEEL the apples. Use a sharp knife to cut off the tops of the apples 1/4" to 1/2" so that the top of each apple is flat. Spray a 2 qt. casserole dish with Pam. Place the apples in the greased casserole dish (so they are sitting upright). In a bowl add brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg--stir. Spoon the spice mixture into the center of each apple. Pour the water into the bottom of the casserole dish. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until you can poke the apples and they are tender. Every 15 minutes during baking, it helps if you remove them from the oven and use a spoon to baste the apples using the juice that forms at the bottom of the dish (returning to oven after each basting). Serve them warm. Top with cold milk, ice cream, Cool Whip, etc.
