Baked Apples

in Guest Recipe Book

Servings: 8 Baked Apples

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 cup apple juice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup sugar
8 Gala or Golden Delicious apples
3 tablespoons brandy
1/2 cup creme fraiche
Vanilla Ice Cream (optional)

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine vinegar, juice, butter and
sugar in a 13 x 9 inch glass baking dish. Cut
off top 3/4 inch of apples to make lids.
Scoop out cores with a melon-ball cutter and replace
lids. Put apples in baking dish and cover with foil.
Bake in middle of oven until very tender but still intact,
1 to 1-1/4 hours.
Transfer apples to plates and boil
pan juices with brandy in a saucepan
until reduced to about 1 cup. Fill apples with
creme fraiche and serve with sauce, or top
baked apple with vanilla ice cream, and spoon
sauce over ice cream, if desired.
