Step by Step Method

Step 1

Place raisins in a bowl; cover with hot water and allow to stand until soft.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 375F.

Step 3

Core each apple, leaving about 1/2 inch of flesh at the base of the hole you create, taking care not to poke through the bottom of the apple.

Step 4

Slice through skin only of the apple half way down all around the apple; this keeps it intact while cooking.

Step 5

Drain the raisins, then put them in a small bowl with the walnuts, stir to combine.

Step 6

Set the apples in a shallow baking pan and pack each core loosely with the walnut mixture; then pour in maple syrup to fill.

Step 7

Sprinkle a wee bit of lemon juice over each apple, then drizzle a bit more maple syrup on the exposed flesh.

Step 8

Place a thin slice of unsalted butter on the packed core of each apple.

Step 9

Pour the apple juice or water into the pan so it covers the bottom to a shallow depth.

Step 10

Bake on the middle rack of the oven until apples are cooked through (test with a toothpick); this should take 35-40 minutes.

Step 11

If it is browning too quickly, cover with a piece of foil.

We loved these, Yum! Love how they are on the healthy side too. We are trying to cut down on calories, but vanilla ice cream would have been great with it, but on its own is already yummy. Used apple cider in place of the apple juice which made a fantastic sauce. Also use a combination of both raisins and craisins. We were in apple heaven. Thanks so much, Luvcookn, for sharing this keeper of a recipe. Made it for Billboard and What’s on the Menu tag games.

The hubby really enjoyed this...I served it to him with a side of vanilla ice cream...he was in heaven...very easy to prepare...the apple I selected was on the large side so it took a bit longer to cook...I cut it down to one serving...and used the water option in place of the apple juice...made for "Billboard" tag game...
