The tart apple flavor blends well with the familiar
flavors of brown sugar and cinnamon spice.
Baked Apples #2, w/brown sugar
Start off with 1 Tbs. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
and
a tart apple such as a Granny Smith variety.
If you're preparing more than one apple,
assemble
a tablespoon of brown sugar
and
1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
for each apple.
Using a fork, blend the cinnamon and sugar together,
breaking up any lumps.
Cut the apple into eighths.
Do this by cutting through the apple from one pole to
the other and repeating with the halves and quarters.
Take care to keep the pieces in order.
Core apple slices by cutting a wedge out of the core
remaining in each slice. Also trim off the stem and
flower remains (calyx).
Using one hand to hold sheet of aluminum foil large
enough to wrap around the apple, position pieces in
the cupped foil to form almost a whole apple (leaving
two slices out).
Scoop the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture into
where the core of the apple used to be.
Compress the mixture as need to fit. It's okay to leave
a small mound since we'll be covering it up with the
remaining two slices of apple.
Place the final two pieces and wrap tightly with the
aluminum foil to hold everything in place.
Bake for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees F. or on a
hot grill for 10 minutes to cook the apple through.
Unwrap and serve with the sugar sauce remaining
in the core.
This is a fun treat to produce at a casual get together
or BBQ since your guests can help unwrap the apples
from their aluminum casings (and if they don't know
the apples are filled, it makes for a nice surprise!)
