Ingredients

4 large Granny Smith apples or the apples of your choice
4 Tablespoon rolled oats
4 Tablespoon granulated sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
1 cup apple cider
4 Tablespoons caramel sauce I found this in the ice cream section of my frozen foods department.

Instructions

Cut off the top of each apple and cut around the core (but not all the way to the bottom because you want it to be closed so the filling doesn't come out). Scoop out most of the core.
Use the knife to cut 2-3 circles in the perimeter around the hole where the core was, making sure not to cut all the way through to the bottom. It should look like a bullseye.
Turn the apple over to the top is face-down. Placing the tip of your knife about a centimeter or so from the center of the bottom of the apple and cut down to the top of the apple. Do this all the way around the outside of the apple to create the "petals." Place them top-side-up into an 8" x 8" baking pan.
In a separate bowl, mix oats, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Divide the mixture between the four apples and stuff it into the middle of each apple where the core used to be.
Pour apples cider around the apples so that it covers the booth of your pan.
Bake uncovered for 45-55 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with caramel sauce. Serve immediately.

Notes

If you are making a single apple, the measurements are 1 Tablespoon each of rolled oats, sugar and melted butter, 1 pinch of cinnamon and ¼ cup of apple cider or enough to cover the bottom of a small baking pan.
