cybergranny 0 Posted October 12, 2005 Hi Jen. I love baked apples! Here is my favorite recipe and you can subsitute raisins for the craisins if you prefer. It is easy and simple to make.    * Exported from MasterCook *  Baked Cinnamon Apples  Recipe By : Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Desserts  Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 medium Granny Smith apples 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed 1/4 cup dried cranberries 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 4 teaspoons Butter Buds® -- liquid form  Preheat oven to 450°. Core apples. Using paring knife, trim off 1/2 inch strip off top of each apple. Place each in center of a foil sheet (18 x 12 inches).  Mix brown sugar, cranberries, and cinnamon in small bowl. Add in butter buds and mix. Fill apples with sugar mixture, spreading any excess around pared rims.  Fold up foil to seal and place packets on baking sheet.  Bake 20 minutes. Remove from oven. Open packets and shape foil around apples. Bake 10 minutes more or until apples are tender. Remove and transfer to bowls. Serve warm with a dollop of Cool Whip free if desired (this won't change the points).  - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -  Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 140 Calories; trace Fat (0.8% calories from fat); trace Protein; 36g Carbohydrate; 3g Dietary Fiber; 0mg Cholesterol; 80mg Sodium. Exchanges: 0 Grain(Starch); 1 Fruit; 0 Fat; 1 1/2 Other Carbohydrates.  Serving Ideas : The original recipe calls for ice cream and real butter. I feel they are every bit as good with the butter buds and Cool Whip and they are half the points!  NOTES : 2 points per serving.
