My fridge is the bottomless pit of apples. We went apple picking over a month ago and I’m beginning to run out of things to do with the apples. My goal is to finish them before I go home for Thanksgiving. I have a week. Tonight, I made baked apples.

******************************

Baked Apples

• 4 Apples, sliced in half and cored
• 4 Tbsp brown sugar
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 1/4 C dried cherries, chopped
• 1/4 C pecans and/or almonds, toasted and chopped
• Cinnamon, to taste
• Nutmeg, to taste
• 1 C apple cider

Preheat the oven to 400F. Put 1/4 Tbsp on each apple half, then sprinkle with brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, cherries and nuts. Place in a shallow baking dish and pour in the apple cider. Bake for 15-20 min, spooning cider over apples every 5 minutes or so.

Serve with yogurt.
