Description

A fall-inspired blend of dried fruit, toasted almonds, and spices fill these baked stuffed apples for a sweet dessert that's great served with ice cream.

Ingredients

1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup toasted sliced almonds
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 large baking apples, cored
1/4 cup water

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Mix cranberries, almonds, butter, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl. Fill each apple cavity evenly with the mixture and place in a baking dish. Add water to the leftover filling and pour around apples.
3 Bake in the preheated oven, basting twice with the liquid from the baking dish, until apples are tender, 50 to 60 minutes. Serve warm.
