DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 375°F. Using a sharp knife or apple corer, remove apple cores, leaving a hollow tunnel through each apple. In a small bowl, combine applesauce, honey, cinnamon, oats, walnuts and raisins. Pack the center of each apple firmly with the oat mixture. Extra filling can be placed on top of the apples. Arrange apples in a baking dish and pour water into the dish. Place baking dish on a middle rack in your preheated oven and bake for 35 to 45 minutes. Apples should be tender and a knife should slide easily into the apples when done.
