This is how I fix baked apples.
Core one apple per serving and cut a thin strip of peel around the circumference to prevent apple from bursting during cooking. Fill the core with either some red hots (cinnamon candies) or two teaspoons of margarine mixed with a little cinnamon and sugar.
Bake at 350 degrees until the apple is soft and brown. (Time depends on the type and how many apples you're fixing -- anywhere from 20 minutes on up.) Serve with whipped cream, ice cream, or plain heavy cream.

Set rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Core and cut the apples into thin wedges, leaving the skin on.
In a skillet, melt the butter with brown sugar and 1 tablespoon water. Add the apples and cook stirring for two to three minutes. Transfer to the baking dish and let cool.
Cut the cream cheese into cubes and arrange evenly over the apples. Cut the slices of bread in half diagonally and layer over the apples to cover the whole dish.

I have two great recipes that I have made this year:
Baked Apples
Ingredients:
8 large baking apples
8 ounces softened cream cheese
1 egg
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
cinnamon to taste
nutmeg to taste
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the core from the apples. Remove the top third of skin. Remove some pulp to leave a shell approximately 3/4 inch thick. Combine egg, sugar, cream cheese, and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Add raisins and nuts. Fill each apple with cheese filling. The filling should crown the apple cavity. Place each apple into a greased ramekin. Place ramekins onto a baking pan. Fill baking pan with water to reach halfway up the sides of ramekin. Sprinkle each apple top with nutmeg and cinnamon. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until apples are consistently soft.
