Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 large Rome apples or other types of baking apples
- 1/4 packed cup (50g) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup (56g) butter cubed, divided
- 1 cup (240ml) boiling water
- vanilla ice cream, evaporated milk, or whip cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and set the rack to the middle level.
- With a fork, combine half of the butter, brown sugar, raisins, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Using a paring knife, core the apples and then use a spoon to scoop out the core and remaining seeds.
- Stuff the apples with the sugar mixture then place them into a baking dish. Top each apple with the remaining butter. Pour the water into the dish around the apples. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the apples are very soft when pierced with a knife but not falling apart. Serve with vanilla ice cream, evaporated milk, or even whipped cream. Enjoy!
Notes
- Chopped nuts, oats, and dried berries all work well for this simple dessert.
- Serve with ice cream, evaporated milk, or whipped cream.
- The cooking time is a rough estimate. Cook the apples until they are very tender, but not falling apart.
- Leftovers can be saved in the fridge for up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
