Blushing Apples Recipe

• 6 red apples
• 1 1/2 cups sugar

• Whipped cream
• Grated rind and juice of one orange
• Juice of one lemon

1. Core the apples.
2. Make a syrup of the sugar and water and pour it over the apples in a warm pan, turning them so they will cook evenly until they are tender.

4. Put the apples in a serving dish.
5. Reduce the syrup to one cup and add the grated rind and juice of one orange, the lemon juice, and if desired, nuts, candied orange peel, or raisins.
6. Pour syrup over apples and serve with whipped cream.
