What do to with your extra apples.......and 100th post!

Well, it's that time of year when people are wondering.....

what shall I do with

these apples?

I thought today I would post a recipe of

something that I really enjoy.

BAKED APPLE PECAN

Sound yummy??? It is!!!!!!!!!!!!

The roasted flavor of

the pecans is

absolutely delish!!!

4 large good baking apples

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 cup chopped pecans

1/4 cup dried cranberries (Craisins)

1 Tbsp butter

3/4 cup boiling water

Preheat oven to 375°F. Wash apples. Remove cores to

1/2 inch of the bottom of the apples.

Use a spoon to dig out the seeds. Make the holes

about 3/4-inch to an inch wide.

In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon,

craisins, and pecans.Place apples in a baking pan. Stuff each apple

with this mixture. Top with a dot of butter

(1/4 of the Tbsp).

Add boiling water to the baking pan. Bake 30-40 minutes,
until tender, but not mushy. Remove from the oven and

baste the apples several times with the pan jucies.

Meanwhile, I also like to roast a few pecans

in a baking dish. After they have roasted for

about 45 mins. I take them out and add

cinnamon, brown sugar and craisins. I then

place this mixture around the apple on

a plate when I serve it!!!

Now some people must serve warm with vanilla ice cream on

the side and I will admit it's very good that way...but I also love

it on it's own. Try it both ways...... either way I think you will love it!!

Well, today is my 100th post!! I can't believe I have

made it this long!! I am gettting together a little

something for a giveaway...BUT I don't have

it quite ready at the time. I guess you will have to

check back again in the next few days.

I hope you all have an amazing fall weekend!

Thanks for all your comments.....

I appreciate each and every one!
