Fresh Baked Apples

Core the apples, pack the hollows with brown sugar, butter, and walnuts, and let the oven do the rest. The filling melts down into the fruit while it bakes, and the apple turns into its own bowl. Makes 4 to 5, ready in about 45 minutes.

Homemade Applesauce

Three pounds of apples, two cinnamon sticks, and a slow cooker do all the work. Four hours on high, a few passes with an immersion blender, and you decide how smooth you want it. Good warm out of the crock or cold from the fridge all week.
