Apple Baker Recipes
Since colonial times, Americans have been baking apples as an easy, wholesome and scrumptious dessert. Traditional baked apples are filled with a mixture of goodies from the following categories:

Nuts

• Chopped almonds
• Chopped hazelnuts
• Chopped walnuts
• Chopped pecans
• Sunflower seeds

Spices

• Cinnamon
• Ginger
• Cloves
• Nutmeg
• Mace

Sugars

• White or Brown cane sugar
• Maple Syrup
• Honey
• Molasses
• A flavored fruit syrup such as blackberry or blueberry
• Jelly, jam, preserves, chutneys or conserves

Choose a combination of any of the above ingredients and your baked apples will be tasty. Some people also dot the apple with butter, but this is optional. Depending on the size of your apple, it will typically bake in about 20-30 minutes in an oven set to 350. Your choice of apples will depend on what's available locally. Many people prefer tart apples for baking - try Gravensteins, Granny Smiths or a regional heirloom apple with a crisp, tart flesh. However, baking apples can turn even those less-complex but widely available Golden Delicious or Red Delicious apples into a gourmet treat. For a great big baked apple, try a Fuji. For something daintier, hunt up Jonathans or Pippins. For a grown-ups-only dessert, try sprinkling your mixture with a few drops of brandy or other liquor.

Your opportunities for dressing up your baked apples are almost limitless, but did you know that our Apple Bakers are a natural for baked stuffed vegetables, too?
