Main Ingredients:

4 medium cooking apples
2 teaspoons margarine
1/4 cup reduced-calorie maple-flavored
syrup

Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Rome Beauty, Golden Delicious and Greening apples all work well in this recipe. We've replaced the usual brown sugar and cinnamon with reduced-calorie maple-flavored syrup to lower calories, but keep the taste.


Heat oven to 375 degrees. Core apples; peel 1-inch strip of skin from around middle of each apple, or peel upper half of each apple to prevent splitting. Place apples upright in ungreased square baking dish, 8 X 8 X 2 inches. Place 1/2 teaspoon margarine and 1 tablespoon maple-flavored syrup in center of each apple. Pour water into baking dish until 1/4 inch deep.

Bake uncovered 30 to 40 minutes or until apples are tender when pierced with fork. Spoon syrup in dish over apples several times during baking. 4 servings
