Baked Maple Apples
2 large apples – I used Zestra, Cortlands or any good baking apple
1/4 cup Maple Sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon ( I used King Arthur Vietnamese Cinnamon)
1 Tablespoon Butter
Carefully remove the core but leave the bottom of the apple intact. I used a knife to cut the top part out then a spoon to scoop the rest out.
Place apples in a baking dish.
Divide the butter in half and add to each apple.
Mix the Maple Sugar and cinnamon and split equally between the apples.
Bake at 350* for about 25 -35 mins or until the apples are soft all the way through.
Serve warm with a slice of sharp cheese or vanilla ice cream! Yummy!
