Baked Candy Apples
Tasty, low-fat holiday gift ideas

Ingredients:
Prep time: 5 minutes Cooking time: 35-40 minutes Makes four servings 4 unpeeled Granny Smith apples (or your favorite apples) 1/2 cup water 1 tablespoon lemon juice 2 cinnamon sticks 1 (3-ounce) bag Weight Watchers Pecan Crowns or Caramel Medallions

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using a melon-baller or paring knife, de-stem and core each apple, leaving the bottoms intact. Place cored apples in 8-inch glass baking dish. Pour water around apples in baking dish. Add lemon juice and cinnamon sticks. Cut candies into 1/4-inch pieces. Set aside 8 teaspoons. Place remaining candy pieces into each apple. Place apples in oven and bake until apples are thoroughly cooked and fork-tender, about 30-35 minutes. Remove from oven briefly and top each apple with 2 teaspoons candy. Return to oven and bake until candy is just melted, about 3-5 minutes. Remove promptly and serve warm. Good idea: For extra low-calorie decadence, add a dollop of fat-free whipped topping to each apple before serving. All materials courtesy of Weight Watchers.
