If your like me you probably just picked off all the apples off your Apple Trees and need to get using them so I thought this would be a good recipe to share, of course you can also use store bought apples.

Cinnamon Baked Apples

*Apples, of your choice
*Gjetost Cheese, this cheese works really well but you could try another one of your choice.
*Brown Sugar
*Fresh Ground Cinnamon

Cut off the tops of the apples, I think using ripe apples works the best it makes it easier to remove centers.

Use a Melon Baller to remove Center of the Apple until about a 1/2 inch from the bottom of the apple.

Fill the cleaned out center of the Apple with brown sugar and Cheese.

Top with Fresh Ground Cinnamon.

Fill a glass Baking Dish with one inch of Water and place filled Apples.

Bake in 350* F. Oven for 25-40 minutes depending on the size of your Apples. (Apples should become soft.)
