1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a baking dish just large enough to hold the apples standing upright.
2 Remove the apple cores and peel the apples about two-thirds of the way down from the stem end.
3 Place the amaretti cookies in a plastic bag and crush them gently with a heavy object, such as a rolling pin. In a medium bowl, blend the crumbs with the sugar and butter.
4 Stuff a little of the mixture into the center of each apple. Spoon the amaretto over the apples. Pour 1 cup water around the apples.
5 Bake 45 minutes or until the apples are tender when pierced with a knife. Serve warm or at room temperature.
