Mix together the Granulated Maple Sugar and Cinnamon – fill apple cavities. Dot each apple top with about ½ teaspoon Butter. Bring opposite points of pastry up over the apple. Moisten pastry to seal it together. Place in baking dish. Pour Pure Maple Syrup in bottom of dish around apples (not over them). Bake 40 to 45 minutes until crust is nicely browned and apples are cooked through (test with fork).
