Baked Apples


This can be dessert (I recommend à la mode) or as a side dish for breakfast. It reminds me of my grandmother. Her baked apples were delicious, caramel flavored, and very comforting.

Baked Apples
4 Rome apples
8 tsp. oatmeal
1 tsp. cinnamon
4 tsp. brown sugar
4 pats butter
Apple cider or orange juice

1. Use a melon baller to scoop out the stem and the core, leaving the bottom intact. Place apples in a baking dish. Stir togther oatmeal and next 2 ingredients. Spoon into center of apples. Top each apple with pat of butter. Pour apple cider into bottom of baking dish.
2. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until apples are soft. Serve warm.
