Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Apples (medium-sized, such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 4 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons Raisins
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups Water
Instructions
Wash the apples thoroughly and use a corer or small paring knife to remove the core, creating a hollow center. Be careful not to cut all the way through the bottom of the apple to prevent the filling from leaking out.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, raisins, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Mix well.
Stuff each apple with the raisin mixture, pressing down gently to pack the filling inside.
Cut the butter into small pieces and place a small piece on top of the filling in each apple.
Pour the water into the bottom of the crock pot to create steam that will help cook the apples evenly.
Place the stuffed apples in the crock pot, ensuring they are upright and spaced evenly.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 3 hours, or until the apples are tender but still hold their shape.
Carefully remove the apples from the crock pot using a spatula or tongs, as they will be hot and delicate.
Serve warm as is, or top with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra indulgent treat.
