Dessert Recipes: Baked Brown Sugar Apples

This is the perfect light dessert, especially for those long, winter days. It's delicious as is, or served with a scoop of low-fat frozen yogurt.

Ingredients:

• 4 Granny Smith apples
• ¼ cup chopped pecans
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• ¼ cup raisins
• Cinnamon for sprinkling

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 325F.

In a bowl, combine the raisins, pecans, brown sugar and cinnamon.

Wash and core each apple and place in a baking dish.

Divide the brown sugar/raising mixture into four parts and fill each apple with the mixture.

Bake approximately 40 minutes or until the apples are tender.
