Baked apples



Good hurricane food, and this used up all the rest of the apples my mom brought me. As an added bonus, my stepson actually voluntarily ate some. (Me: "Do you want some baked apples?" Him, suspiciously: "What are those?" Me: "Apples with cinnamon and sugar." Him: "Oh, I'll try that!")

Baked apples involve exactly four ingredients:

Peeled apples, cut into chunks
Sugar
Cinnamon
Butter

That's it. For every 4-5 cups of apples, add a handful of sugar, and 1-2 tablespoons of cinnamon. Mix all that together, and dump into a casserole dish. Dot the top with bits of butter (maybe 2 tablespoons total) and bake at 350 for 45 minutes or so, or until soft all the way through.

Can be served hot, cold, or at room temperature, as a side dish, breakfast, or dessert.
