Stuffed Baked Apples

Submitted by Hippie2MARS

"Another one from Ms. Ray, only slightly altered. This is such an easy dessert and terrific topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream...or both! *Be sure to a dish with sides as this can get rather saucy!"

Very disappointed in this recipe. I had medium size apples but they we hard after the 20 minutes at 420 degrees. The 420 made some of the stuffing hard and hadf a little burned flavor. I would suggest reducing temp to 375-350 and increase the time to 40-45 minutes. I may make it again with changes because it is easy to make.

From a centuries old fruit to a multi-million dollar company. Gotta admire the way the apple keeps reinventing its self. Made for An Apple A Day Tag.
