Baked Apple With Maple Yogurt Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• A large, firm, tart apple is best.
• Use Ida Red or Northern Spy.
• A Cortland can be used.
• However, if you use a McIntosh, you must shorten the cooking time.
• Core apples and remove top inch of peel.
• Make a shallow out through skin around centre of each apple to prevent skin from bursting.
• Place apples upright in baking dish or pie plate.
• In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, raisins, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Spoon into centres of each apple.
• Add water to cover bottom of dish.
• Bake, uncovered in 375 F for 25 to 30 minutes for less firm apples and up to 50 minutes for firm varieties or until apples are tender when pierced with a toothpick.
• Combine the yogurt and maple syrup to make the sauce.
• Pour over the baked apples.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Wash and core apples, leaving enough of the core at the base of the apple to contain the filling.
• Combine the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and chopped pecans in a small bowl. Roll log shapes of the mixture and press enough into each apple to fill the core.
• Fill a 2-quart baking dish with about 3/4 cup water, or enough to cover the bottom. Place the apples upright in the dish. Bake until the apples are soft and the filling is browned, 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Core apple and peel the top third. Place in a small microwave-safe dish. Fill apple with walnut mixture. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3-4 minutes or until apple is tender. Serve warm.
