I had big dreams for this dish….BIG DREAMS! I even carefully measured out every ingredient, painstakingly and thoughtfully deciding which spices and fillers I wanted in there. I cored the apples perfectly, making them smooth and round and perfect for stuffing. I hand-picked the appropriate sized baking dish, one that would fit all the apples but not be stuffed to the brim, allowing the heat to even wrap them in a blanket of warmth in which to bake them to perfection.
I checked and double-checked and decided to bake them just a few minutes longer because they weren’t perfect just yet.
And then this happened.
Alas, this recipe (delicious as it was) will have to wait til I can find the time to perform another miraculous apple-coring surgery on at least 5-6 Granny Smith apples.
At least I wrote the filling down!

Ugh – hate that!! I agree with the comment above – plop some ice cream on top and no one will be the wiser!
Seeing other bloggers kitchen fails make me feel normal
I bet this tastes delicious
It should still taste good! It was a good idea too!
Oh no
That’s too bad!! They look like they’d still be pretty delish though
LOL! Oops…. they still look good to me though. I’d just dig in with a spoon.
Aw…they look endearing
I bet it was so tasty, though! Wish some vanilla ice cream perhaps…mmm.
Haha Opps!!! But I bet they still tasted delicious!
aww! I always mope around after a recipe doesn’t turn out. At least it was tasty and you could still eat it.
Ugh…that is always disappointing, but I’m sure they were tasty!
Hey…taste is all that matters! At least that’s what I tell myself to feel better since nothing I make comes out very pretty. Except maybe my fudge. My fudge is pretty.
I laughed out loud. Thanks for sharing. They still look yummy, though.
thats why I just warm mine up in the microwave on high for 3 minutes lol
Apple bombs!!! They still look pretty tasty
That sucks! But you made me audibly laugh!
