BAKED APPLES

  • MATERIALS
  • 2 large perfect apples
  • ½ cup sugar

  • UTENSILS
  • Baking-dish
  • Apple-corer
  • Vegetable-knife

DIRECTIONS

  1. Wash the apples and remove the cores.
  2. Put the apples in a baking-dish, fill the hollow centres of the apples with sugar, and sprinkle the remaining sugar around the apples in the baking-dish.
  3. Pour ½ cup of water into the baking-dish around the apples, and set the dish in a slow oven to bake from thirty to forty-five minutes, or until the apples are tender and slightly browned.
  4. Take the dish from the oven, and let the apples cool before serving.

REMARKS

Baked apples are sometimes served with roast pork, in which case they should be hot.

A few raisins and a little spice may be put into the hollow centres of the apples before baking, if desired.
