The apple takes the place of individual serving dishes when stuffed with a nice ham mixture. Great for a small dinner party. Taken from the From Storebought to Homemade cookbook. Ingredients:
6 large red apples, unpeeled |
8 ounces cooked ham, cubed small |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/3 cup raisins (brown or golden) |
1/3 cup pecans, chopped |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/2 cup apple juice (may need up to 1 cup) |
Directions:
1. Cut the tope off the apples and scoop out the core with some of the fruit, but be sure to leave a thick shell to hold the stuffing.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
3. Put approximately 1 cup of the removed apple fruit in a mixing bowl and combine it with the ham, butter, raisins, pecans and brown sugar; mixing the ingredients well.
4. Spoon this mixture into the cored apples and place them in a baking dish.
5. Pour the juice over the apples and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, basting occasionally with the juice.
