BAKED STUFFED APPLE
An apple is filled with a cinnamon cheesecake center. I used a Braeburn apple but any variety will work. Great for a cold night! Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

- Cut the stem out of the apple and hollow out the center until it is about 1 1/2 inches wide without going through the bottom. In a small cup, stir together the cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar. Set aside half of this mixture, and mix the rest with the cream cheese and dried cranberries.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 375°F.
- Peel, core and chop 1 apple into 1/3-inch pieces. Set aside.
- Cut one-fourth off the top of the remaining apples and discard the tops. Using a melon baller or a spoon, hollow out the apples, leaving 1/3 inch of the flesh on the inside. Set aside.
- In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the sausage with a wooden spoon, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a large bowl.

Arrange the apples in a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Squeeze lemon juice into a medium bowl filled with cold water. Using a sharp knife, remove stem from each apple. Using a melon baller, remove cores and hollow out apples until walls are about 3/4 inch thick. Place apples in water.
- Place walnuts on a baking pan; toast until fragrant and golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Let the walnuts cool, and roughly chop.
- Place walnuts, cranberries, ginger, apricots, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl.
- Drain apples; spoon walnut filling into each cavity, packing fairly tightly. Place apples in a baking dish just large enough to hold them all. Add salt, being careful not to get any salt in the filling; fill until the salt covers the apples up to where the filling begins. Cover with a sheet of aluminum foil.
- Bake until apples are tender and start to pull away from salt, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly. Remove apples from salt; serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a skillet over a low flame, saute onion in the butter for 5 minutes. Add pork and spices and cook slowly for 12 minutes. Stir in nuts. Peel, core and mince one apple; add to the meat mixture and remove from flame.
- Core remaining apples and stuff with the pork mixture. Put stuffed apples in a shallow baking dish. Warm the cider and pour around the apples. Put apples in oven and bake for 40 minutes. Remove and, if serving later, cover the baking dish with foil. Apples can be reheated in a 350-degree oven for 5 minutes or served at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples that hold their shape well during baking, such as Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp.
- Core the apples carefully: Use an apple corer to remove the core without cutting through the bottom of the apple.
- Stuff the apples generously: Don't be afraid to pack the apples tightly with your chosen stuffing. This will ensure that each bite is full of flavor.
- Bake the apples until they are tender: The baking time will vary depending on the type of apples you use and the size of the apples. A good rule of thumb is to bake the apples for about 45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a knife.
- Serve the apples warm or cold: Baked stuffed apples can be served warm or cold. If you are serving them warm, top them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. If you are serving them cold, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
