Pumpkin Spiced Baked Apples

Fall flavors combine for a one-of-a-kind pumpkin spiced apple treat in today’s recipe.   Ingredients: 4 large good baking apples 1/4 cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice 1/4 cup rolled oats 1/4 cup chopped raisins 1 Tbsp. butter ½ cup boiling water   Directions: 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a deep baking dish that is large enough to hold the 4 apples, and deep enough to come up to at least half the apple height. 2. Rinse and dry the apples. Using an apple corer, cut out the cores, leaving the bottom 1/2 inch of the apples intact so your filling doesn’t fall out. 3. In a bowl, stir together the brown sugar, pumpkin spice, chopped raisins, and oats. 4. Place the apples in the greased baking dish and stuff each apple with the mixture. 5. Pour equal amounts of butter into the center of each apple where the filling is. 6. Pour the boiling water into the bottom of the baking dish. 7. Bake for 25-35 minutes, be sure to check on your apples halfway through and every 5 minutes after that as you want your apples to be tender but not mushy. 8. Once the apples are done and out of the oven, baste them with the juices from the bottom of the dish. 9. Serve with your favorite cream or vanilla ice cream! Enjoy!   Recipe By: Daniella Park @Buttercremelane
