Directions
Preheat the oven to 375° F. Spray a 9-by-3-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Roll the pie dough out to about ¼ inch thick and cut into six 6-inch squares. Place one apple in the center of each square.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Divide the sugar mixture, raisins, and butter among the apples, stuffing it into the core of the apple and allowing it to generously overflow. Bring the corners of the dough to the top of each apple and pinch the edges together.
Place the apples in the pan, at least 1 inch apart. Bake for 30 to 3 minutes, until the crust is golden. Serve warm with cream.
