Name: Classic Baked Apples
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 whole Apples (I Used Gala); 1/4 cups Dark Brown Sugar (packed); 1/4 cups Raisins; 1/4 cups Chopped Almonds; 1 teaspoon Cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoons Nutmeg; 1/4 teaspoons Cloves; 1/4 teaspoons Mace; 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract; 1 Tablespoon Butter, Quartered; 3/4 cups Water

Servings: persons

1
Preheat oven to 375u00b0F and prepare an 8 x 8 baking dish.
2
Rinse and dry apples thoroughly. Use a paring knife to cut out the cores of the apples and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. Leave about 1/2 inch on the bottom of the apples for a sturdy foundation.
3
Combine brown sugar, raisins, chopped almonds, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, mace and vanilla in a bowl and stir thoroughly. Spoon mixture evenly in each of the apples, then top each apple with one of the quarters of butter.
4
Fill the 8 x 8 dish with the water, then place the apples in it. Bake for 40-45 minutes to really make them tender and the filling bubbly. When done, take them out and baste them with the juices in the pan. Let them cool enough to handle, then serve immediately with either whipped cream or ice cream.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
