{Baked Apple with Oatmeal & Brown Sugar}

These baked apples are a treat! If you like apple pie, and even if you don't like apple pie you're going to LOVE these! I made these for Derek's birthday last month and became hooked.

1/2c oatmeal
1/2c brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
pinch of ginger
pinch of nutmeg
1/4c melted butter
fugi apples (any apples work, but I find that fugi are the best so far)

Preheat oven to 375F. Mix oatmeal, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and melted butter together. Consistency is lumpy.

I forgot to take a pic of the dry ingredients with the butter, but this is what it is supposed to look like somewhat.

 Wash and peel apples. Cut apples in half and spoon out the center. (I used a melon baller) Add a small spoonful of butter in the center of the apple.

 Fill the apple halve with your oatmeal & brown sugar mixture. Bake for about 35 minutes.

Serve with whipped cream, ice cream, or carmel....and ENJOY!
