This year the apples are abundant!!! We have more apples then I will know what to do with. They are happy and yummy. If you are visiting us please ask for a bag full. Here is a yummy recipe. I think I need to figure out a fun project to make for the teachers on the first day of school that has to do with apples. Any thoughts?
Baked Apples
Ingredients
Makes 4
· 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
· 1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
· 1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
· 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
· 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
· 1/4 teaspoon salt
· 4 medium apples, skin peeled in a spiral
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Stir together butter, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
2. Scoop out the core of each apple with a melon baller, being careful not to go through the bottom; discard cores. Fill each apple with oat mixture, dividing evenly. Transfer apples to a 9-inch square non-reactive baking dish. Add 1 cup water to the dish to cover bottoms of apples by about 1/2 inch. Cover dish with aluminum foil. Bake until apples are soft but not mushy, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm.
