directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Peel the top of each apple and core with a melon baller, leaving the base intact.
Step 3
Mix together the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nuts, raisins and salt.
Step 4
Pack the mixture in the centre of the apple. It can spill out the top. (You may have leftover, depending on size of apple.)
Step 5
Place apple in a small casserole dish with ¼ cup apple juice. Bake for about 40 minutes or until apples are fragrant and soft. Brush peeled portion of apple with maple syrup halfway through, as well as 5 minutes before done.
Step 6
Serve warm.
