  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, optional

  5. Gently pack nut filling into each apple.
  6. Put apples in a baking dish; add ¼ cup water to bottom.
  7. Divide remaining tablespoon butter into four pieces and put one on each apple.
  8. Cover with foil; bake 30 minutes.
  9. Uncover; bake another 15-20 minutes until apples are knife-tender and tops lightly browned.
