I made these for dessert for Thanksgiving dinner, as it was something light after the huge meal we were going to eat.
The twist is orange zest and whiskey. Yummy!
You will need:
2 tbsp unsalted butter
4 large apples
½ tsp cloves
3 tbsp brown sugar
Zest of 1 orange
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp mixed spice
1 ½ tsp whiskey
¼ cup raisins
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.
2. Use an apple corer to remove the cores from your apples.
3. With a knife, score around the middle of each apple. This prevents the apple from bursting during the cooking process.
4. Lightly butter the bottom of a baking dish and place the apples in it.
5. Cream the butter in a small bowl with brown sugar.
6. Add in spices and orange zest and mix well.
7. Add in the whiskey and raisins, then stuff it into the apple core.
8. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
The perfect Fall dessert.
4 apples
4 tbsp margarine or unsalted butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp all spice
1/4 tsp cloves
1/4 cup raisins (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray 8 x 8 square cooking pan with Pam cooking spray.
Remove apple cores without cutting apples into pieces (use an apple corer if available).
Spread each apple core hole with 1 tablespoon of margarine and place in pan.
Mix brown sugar and spices, then equally sprinkle into each apple core hole.
Sprinkle in raisins, if you are using them.
Bake for 35 minutes, pull pan out, and baste apples with juice.
Once basted, return pan into the over for another 10 to 15 minutes depending on how soft you want the apples.
