Step 1
Heat oven to 350°F. Core each apple from the top, leaving a 1/2-inch base intact at the bottom.
Step 2
Mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Divide the mixture evenly among the apple cavities.
Step 3
Top each apple with a small piece of butter. Arrange them in an oven-safe baking dish.
Step 4
Bake for 18–22 minutes, until apples are tender when pierced with a fork and edges look caramelized.
Step 5
Serve warm. The filling will be bubbly and the apples soft throughout.
