4 baking apples
1/2 tsp cinnamon
a pinch of nutmeg
1/4 cup dried cherries, raisins, or cranberries, etc.
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup diet black cherry soda
Makes 4 Servings
Preheat the oven to 375 F. Using an apple corer or sharp knife, remove the apple cores from the stem ends without cutting the apples all the way through the outer end. Place the apples cored side up in a 9" x 9" baking dish.
Sprinkle the apples inside and outside with the cinnamon. Spoon the cherries or raisins and the walnuts into the apples. Drizzle a little soda into each apple. Pour the remaining soda into the baking dish.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until apples are tender.

Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Cookbook. It's New Year's Eve and I wanted to try a fun and healthy dessert and this looked good. It's as simple as it is different and it's delicious. I don't recommend using red delicious apples when baking this dish. I would probably use Granny Smith Apples.
