Baked Apple Pies

Method

1. Pre-heat oven to 200ºC.
2. Wash and core the apples. Cut a small round off the top to give you access to the flesh. Remove apple flesh and dice into small pieces.
3. Place apples in a shallow baking dish.
4. Combine apple flesh, brown sugar, raisins, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small bowl. Fill the center of each apple with the mixture and dot with 1/2 teaspoon of the butter.
5. Cut the pastry into thin, 5cm strips and make a lattice with the strips on top of each apple.
6. Bake, uncovered, at 200ºC for about 30 minutes, or until apples are tender and the pastry has browned and gone puffy.
7. Serve with ice cream of choice or whipped cream.
