Baked Stuffed Apples

4 servings/Serving size: 1 apple half

 

1 cup apple juice

2 oz dried apricot

2 oz dried cranberry

2 oz white raisins

1 Tbsp brown sugar

1 Tbsp honey

4 medium Red Delicious apples

 

1.Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. In a small pot, bring the apple juice to

a simmer. Add the dried fruit and steep until the fruit is tender, about 3 to 5

minutes. Remove the fruit and combine with brown sugar and honey.

2.Cut the apples in half and remove the core using a spoon or melon baller.

Make sure all the seeds have been removed, but that you leave the bottom and top

of the apple intact to keep the fruit from falling out. Spoon the fruit mixture

into

the centers of the apples. Bake in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until

tender.

I'm guessing the serving size is actually two apple halves,

or one full apple, based on the 4 apples in the ingredients

list and the 262 calories per serving. Do you concur?

 

Thanks,
