Ingredients
tablespoon unsalted butter1 firm, crisp apples halved and seeded2 tablespoons brown sugar1 cinnamon stick (about 4 inches each) halved or mix teaspoon ground cinnamon with the brown sugar
Directions
SUGGESTED ADDITIONS:
The small amount of butter and brown sugar plus a dollop of low-fat Greek yogurt and sprinkling of nuts or granola make it a classy breakfast, the start of a nice brunch, or even evening snack.

1) Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 400F. Place butter in a small baking dish and set it in preheating oven to melt while preparing apples.

2) Remove the dish from oven; sprinkle brown sugar over butter. Arrange cinnamon stick evenly over sugar and place apples, cut side down, over cinnamon sticks. Bake until apples are tender, about 25 minutes. Remove pan from oven, turn apples, cut side up, and spoon sauce over apples. Return pan to oven and continue to roast until golden brown, about 5 minutes longer. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

3) To serve, spoon a half apple into each bowl, sticking a cinnamon stick in each core. Serve as desired (see suggestions above).
