SAVORY BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a skillet over a low flame, saute onion in the butter for 5 minutes. Add pork and spices and cook slowly for 12 minutes. Stir in nuts. Peel, core and mince one apple; add to the meat mixture and remove from flame.
• Core remaining apples and stuff with the pork mixture. Put stuffed apples in a shallow baking dish. Warm the cider and pour around the apples. Put apples in oven and bake for 40 minutes. Remove and, if serving later, cover the baking dish with foil. Apples can be reheated in a 350-degree oven for 5 minutes or served at room temperature.
