The recipe isn’t a long one, so don’t worry. There’s not much of a wait until you can enjoy some real good desert! Just start by…

1. Cutting The Apples: Get 4 apples (of your choice, preferably from the list I discussed earlier) and dig out just their cores. Make sure that you don’t cut any other part off, and that the core from top to bottom is the only thing removed so that the apple keeps its natural shape.
2. Create Filling: You’re going to need to combine a bunch of different ingredients in this next step to create the filling for the apples. These include 3 tablespoons of oats, 1 tablespoon of raisins, 2 tablespoons of walnuts, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, ½ tablespoon of cinnamon, and ½ tablespoon of honey, all of which you need to stuff inside a large bowl and mix together as well as you can.
3. Fill Apples with Mixture: You made the filling to fill the apples with it… so do that next, obviously. There’s nothing more to this step than that. Just get a spoon and start filling up each of the 4 apples bit by bit with the mixture you made in the last step and put them away.
4. Pour Water Around The Apples: Just do pretty much as the heading says. First, get the apples you filled up and place them all on a deep baking dish you can stuff in the oven. Then, get 2 cups of water to pour all around the apples.
5. Butter ‘Em Up!: Get 2 tablespoons of butter and cut each tablespoon into two pieces, so that you have half a tablespoon for each of the 4 apples. Once you have the pieces ready, just place them on top of each apple.
6. Start Baking: Set the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and let the apples sit inside for 10 minutes, or however long it takes for the filling to become crisp and the apples to start noticeably shriveling. Once you can tell that’s happening, it’s safe to turn the oven off and take the apples out.
7. Make Coating: You’re almost done with the recipe, but there’s still a couple of small things left to do. The first is making a coating that you can pour on top of the apples to give it extra sweetness and flavor. To make this coating, combine 1.5 cups of powdered (icing) sugar, ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 3 tablespoons of milk of heavy cream together in a large bowl. Mix these ingredients together until they gel together, and keep adding additional tablespoons of milk while mixing if it comes out too thick, right until it’s not so thick anymore.
8. Pour Over Apples and Serve!: Pour the coating you made in the last step all over your apples until they’re adequately covered. Once that’s done, you can finally serve the baked apples and enjoy a delicious little treat which gets better and better as you practice the recipe more, especially with different types of apples.
