We went apple picking today and came home with 20 lbs. of fresh Macintosh apples. Bakes apples is an easy recipe, best enjoyed warm, fresh from the oven.

4 fresh apples
1 Tbsp. salted butter, divided
Pantry
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 cup golden raisins
3/4 cup boiling water
Prepare apples
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees-F. Core the apples using a paring knife to cut around core. Use a spoon to remove seeds and core.

Stuff apples
Use a small spoon to fill each apple with one-quarter of the sugar filling. Top each apple with 1/4 Tbsp. of butter.
Bake apples
Place the apples in a small baking dish, like a square glass casserole dish. Pour the boiling water into the dish. Carefully place the dish in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. Check on the apples occasionally while baking and baste with the juices in the pan using a spoon.
