fall baked apples

every fall i like to bake apples that can be served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. first, i core the apples and take a small amount of the top from the apple.  the apples are placed in a baking dish with a small amount of water in the dish. 

for the mixture, i use brown sugar, cinnamon, chopped nuts, and a bit of maple syrup.  after placing the mixture into the apples, i place a small slice of margarine on top of each apple.  the apples are baked at 350 degrees for at least 40 minutes.  it is important to check the apples during the cooking time, depending on the size of each apple.  some apples may take 60 minutes to bake, others may only take 40 minutes. 

these apples are wonderful served warm for a great fall dessert.
