Ingredients
- 10 apples McIntosh, Macoun, Empire or red skinned
- 3 Tbl Butter
- 3 Tbl Sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- First, prepare the apples by washing them well. You will be leaving the skins ON.
- Core the apples and place each one atop a square of aluminum foil.
- Into the cored apples, insert butter and sprinkle will sugar. Wrap each apple and place all on a parchment or Silpat lined baking sheet and bake for one hour.
- Once cooked, let cool slightly and using a food mill (shown here) or with a spoon, scrape the flesh from the skin. Be sure to add any juice as well. Blend into a smooth puree.
