Apple Pie within an Apple

I made this recipe last Monday for desert. It turned out very well and my siblings and parents loved it. I didn't like it as much because I don't really like cinnamon because it is too strong. Next time I will make it with less cinnamon so it is less strong.

I found this recipe on a friends Facebook page. She posted this link. The website, Chronicles of a Domestic Dilettante, has many different recipes including appetizers, brunch, and desserts. Next time I can't find a recipe, I know where to go!



Ingredients:
-6 apples
-1 teaspoon of cinnamon
-¼ cup of sugar
-1 tbsp of brown sugar
-pie crust (I made my own... Recipe Here (only up to step 2))
Directions:
Cut off the top of four apples and remove the inside of each apple with a spoon**. Then, remove the peel off of the remaining apples. Slice these apple thinly. Than, mix these cut apples with the sugar and cinnamon. Scoop the mixture into the hollow apples. Roll out the pie crust and slice into ¼ inch strips. Cover the top of the apples in a lattice pattern with the strips of pie crust. Then, place the apples in an 8x8 pan. Add a little water just to cover the bottom of the pan. cover the pan with foil and bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove the foil and back for another 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove for oven and let cool (just enough so you don't burn yourself). Serve with ice cream.
**Be very careful as not to cut off the peel. On my first try, it didn't turn out great because I cut a little too deep.
