Apple Surprise

I came home from a few weeks in Texas and made dinner. We had French Toast and Apple Surprise! I got the idea from Martha Stewart Living this month and modified it to fit my plan. See, on the plate it just looks like an apple! Inside, though, is a surprise....

First you take an apple, cut off the top, and scoop out the insides. I put the insides in a pan and simmered them with some cinnamon and sugar to make some syrup for the French Toast.

Then you fill the apple with whatever. Martha recommended caramel. I filled them with homemade apple sauce and cinnamon.

I added a little cinnamon stick and apple heart for garnish. =D Isn't it cute?

Then I put the lid back on it to add to the surprise.

Eliana thought it was great, and we all got to eat our apple bowls after the applesauce was gone!
