Using baking apples (I use Cortland) core them and peel a thin slice off of the top edge with a veggie peeler and discard it. Make about 4 indentations in the apple with a knife around the fat part of the apple. Inside each apple fill the hole with 1/4 teaspoon butter and 1 teaspoon sugar, a glob of raisins and pieces of walnuts. If you have any granola kicking around this adds a nice flavor. Also you can use maple syrup or honey instead of the regular sugar.
Place in a casserole dish and bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Then take 4 Tablespoons of flour with 1 Tablespoon of water and about 2 Tablespoons of brown sugar. Mix together well in a separate bowl and then in equal portions drizzle this mixture over the apples and bake for about 10 more minutes.
This is great for breakfast or you can make it for dessert and plop a glob of either whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top.
