BAKED APPLES WITH BROWN SUGAR
Great comfort food. Best to make fresh but you can prepare the apples well ahead of time and just refrigerate until ready to bake. They'll brown up a little bit from exposure to air but that won't matter once they're cooked, all bubbly, brown and delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Wash and dry apples. Cut the apples in half and remove the core but leave any stems intact. Place apples in baking dish. Divide butter among each core cavity. Top each apple half with a tablespoon of sugar and dash with cinnamon.
- Bake apples until the flesh is tender and they're bubbly and perfect looking, about 30 minutes. Serve with Creamy Custard Sauce.
- Heat the melted ice cream in a small saucepan over low heat until hot. Meanwhile, put the yolks in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth. While whisking, slowly drizzle about 1 or 2 tablespoons hot melted ice cream into the yolks until blended. While whisking constantly, slowly add the rest of the hot liquid to the yolk mixture. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and return to low heat.

Steps:
- Peel skin off top quarter of each apple. Using melon baller, scoop out core, leaving bottom intact. Stand apples in 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Mix sugar and spices in bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons mixture. Fill apple cavities with remaining sugar mixture. Spoon 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup into each cavity. Scatter 3 tablespoons butter pieces over apples. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Pour 1/2 cup water into pan with apples. Bake apples 35 minutes. Add reserved 2 tablespoons sugar mixture, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 1 tablespoon butter, and 1/2 cup water to pan. Bake until apples are tender when pierced with skewer, about 25 minutes longer. Transfer apples to 8 bowls. Place baking pan atop 2 burners; boil over medium-high heat until syrupy, about 2 minutes. Spoon sauce over apples. Serve with whipping cream, if desired.

Steps:
- Mix raisins and brown sugar together in a small bowl.
- Stand apples upright on bottom of slow cooker, and spoon raisin-brown sugar mixture into centers of apples, dividing evenly.
- Sprinkle stuffed apples with cinnamon, and dot with butter.
- Add water along edge of slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on low 3-5 hours, or on high 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 hours, or until apples are tender, but not collapsing.
- Serve warm as is, or with ice cream, or frozen yogurt.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples are all good choices for baking. They hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that complements the sweetness of the brown sugar.
- Peel and core the apples. This will help the apples cook evenly and prevent the skins from becoming tough.
- Use a sharp knife to score the apples. This will help the brown sugar mixture penetrate the apples and create a delicious caramelized crust.
- Don't overcrowd the baking dish. The apples should be able to sit in a single layer so that they cook evenly.
- Bake the apples until they are tender. The apples should be soft enough to easily pierce with a fork, but they should not be mushy.
- Serve the apples warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed on their own or topped with whipped cream, ice cream, or yogurt.
Conclusion:
Brown sugar baked apples are a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give brown sugar baked apples a try.
