Baked Apples

Baked apples are especially delicious in the autumn time but make a good all year round dessert. We have used Grilling Rings to keep the apples upright whilst cooking, though you can stand the apples in a baking dish. You can't beat vanilla ice cream with these baked apples (we haven't been able to come up with a recipe for that one yet!!)
