    Thanks for sharing! I entered the ingredients in MFP as a recipe using real butter. (I also left out the orange liquor.) I came up with 185 cal per apple. I will def make these this month!

    This fruit based dessert has the same flavors as apple pie without the guilt of a fattening crust! I recommend you pair it with a... Spiced Apple Pie Cocktail : Vanilla Vodka, Apple Cider, Ice and Cinnamon :)

    Makes 6 baked apples

    Ingredients
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
    2 tablespoons trans-fat free margarine
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    6 Gala or Macintosh apples, cored
    1/2 cup apple juice or apple cider
    2 tablespoons orange liquor (optional)

    Directions
    Preheat a large crock-pot on high heat and preset it for 3 hours. In a large bowl, mix brown sugar, walnuts, margarine, and cinnamon. Fill the apples with the filling and place them in the crock-pot. Pour in the apple juice or cider and the liquor, if using. Cover and cook 2 1/2 to 3 hours on high heat until the apples are soft and begin to collapse.

    bump.... will use a bit of real butter though, don't but margarine. I may also try a filling of mixed nuts/cranberries, maybe some cranberries or raisins with a little almond paste mixed with sour cream?????,
