SPICED BAKED APPLES
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

Tips:
- Choose the right apples. Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well and can withstand the baking process. Avoid soft or mealy apples like Red Delicious or McIntosh.
- Peel and core the apples carefully. Use a sharp knife to remove the peel and core in one motion. This will help to prevent the apples from breaking apart.
- Use a variety of spices. The spices in this recipe are just a suggestion. Feel free to experiment with different spices to create your own unique flavor combination.
- Don't overcook the apples. The apples should be tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked apples will be mushy and bland.
- Serve the apples warm or cold. Spiced pirate baked apples are delicious served warm or cold. If you're serving them cold, be sure to let them cool completely before refrigerating.
Conclusion:
Spiced pirate baked apples are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these apples are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a new dessert to try, be sure to give spiced pirate baked apples a try. You won't be disappointed!
