Baked Stuffed Apples Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

1 cup apple juice
2 oz dried apricot
2 oz dried cranberry
2 oz white raisins
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp honey
4 medium Red Delicious apples

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.

In a small pot, bring the apple juice to a simmer. Add the dried fruit and steep until the fruit is tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the fruit and combine with brown sugar and honey.

Cut the apples in half and remove the core using a spoon or melon baller. Make sure all the seeds have been removed, but that you leave the bottom and top of the apple intact to keep the fruit from falling out.

Spoon the fruit mixture into the centers of the apples. Bake in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until tender.

This recipe yields 4 servings. Serving size: 1 apple half.

"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’."

~ John Thorne, American food writer
