Directions

Filling

  1. Pre heat oven to 375 degrees
  2. Cut off the top of 4 apples and remove the inside with a spoon or scooper. Be very careful, as to not puncture the peel!

  4. Throw the apple slices in a bowl and mix with sugars and cinnamon. Scoop mixture evenly into each of the 4 hollow apples.

  2. Cover the top of the apple in a lattice pattern with pie crust strips.
  3. Place apples in an 8 by 8 pan and add just enough water to the cover the bottom of the pan. Cover with foil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
