Baked Apples
Author: Ashley Gorrell, Thanksgiving Point cooking-class specialist
Ingredients
4 Braeburn apples, cut in half
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup brown sugar
Cinnamon to taste
Melted butter
Directions
Split each apple in half and scoop out the seeds with a melon baller, to form a pocket for the filling. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of the apple half so it will sit flat. Combine coconut, pecans, raisins, sugar and cinnamon, and stuff the pocket of each apple (stuffing should spill out from the pocket). Baste apples with melted butter. Place in a 350-degree oven until done, about 25-30 minutes. Apples should be soft but firm enough to handle. The raisins on top will be black and bitter, so pick those off before serving.
