    for each apple.                                                                each apple.


    Roll out pastry and cut into many squares as there are apples. Peel and core the apples without breaking them. Spread each square with jam. Stand the apple on it. With sugar fill the holes. Close up the pastry round the fruit. Press edges together. Bake apples on a greased tin in a brisk oven till pastry is nicely browned. They will take about 25 minutes to bake, according to the size of the apples.
