Baked Apples on the Beach


During the fall season, nothing beats a baked apple dish. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to enjoy apples without smothering them in butter and sugar. Try this easy Phase 2 recipe:

Black Cherry Baked Apples
Serves 2

This treat is as simple as it is unusual and delicious.

Ingredients
2 baking apples
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons dried cherries or apricots
2 tablespoons walnuts, chopped
1/2 cup diet black cherry soda

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Using an apple corer or sharp knife, remove the apple cores from the stem ends without cutting the apples all the way through the outer end. Place the apples cored side up in a 9" X 9" baking dish.

Sprinkle the apples inside and outside with the cinnamon. Spoon the cherries or raisins and the walnuts into the apples. Drizzle a little soda into each apple. Pour the remaining soda into the baking dish.

Bake for 20 minutes, or until the apples are tender
