12 tart Jonathon Apples

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Core the apples but leave the
bottom intact so it looks like a ‘well’ in the apple.

baking. Fill the hole with 2 tablespoon of brown sugar and
1 tablespoon of butter substitute butter. Then place the
apples in baking dish with a thin layer of water on the bottom,
and sprinkle each apple with cinnamon.
