Spiced Baked Apples image

I LOVE harvesttime and being able to cook with all the fresh produce gathered from gardens and groves. Since there's so much of everything, I try to be creative by enhancing old recipes with slight variations. That's what happened with these baked apples. The spices and touch of orange make the flavor just perfect! -Lorraine Chausse Cornwall, Ontario

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my apples didn't turn out very good. They were dry and the filling was bland.

I followed the recipe exactly and my apples turned out mushy. I think I'll try baking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These baked apples were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I've made this recipe several times now and it always turns out great! The apples are always soft and juicy, and the spices are the perfect complement. I love serving these apples with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
