rec.food.recipes archive

3 or 4 Granny Smith apples
 butter
 cinnamon sugar
 3 Tbls flour
 1/2 cup sugar
 1 cup milk
 1 tsp vanilla
 cinnamon
 nutmeg (optional)
 Peel apples, cut in half and core. Place in a baking dish, cut side
 up, with about an 1/8 inch of water in the bottom of the dish.
 Place about 1/2 Tbls. of butter in the center of each apple. Sprinkle
 generously with cinnamon-sugar. Bake at 350 F for 30-40 minutes or
 until fork inserts easily. (Turn over about 20 minutes into baking
 for about 15 minutes, turn back over and fill center with juices
 in the bottom of the dish, finish baking). Remove from oven and
 set aside.  In saucepan bring flour, sugar and milk to a boil over
 medium heat (it will be thick) stirring constantly. Remove from
 heat, add vanilla and stir well. Pour over apples and sprinkle with
 cinnamon and nutmeg if you desire.  Serve hot or let cool some.
 If I don't have a lot of time to make these I cut the apples into
 quarters and just top with butter. OR I use the microwave and omit
 the water in the bottom of the pan.
