Using a sharp knife, cut a 1/4-inch-thick slice from the top and bottom of each apple. Working from the stem end and using a melon baller, apple corer or sharp knife, remove the interior core and seeds to within 1/2 inch of the bottom. Using a paring or channeling knife, score the apple skin lengthwise at 1 1/2-inch intervals. Arrange the apples so they don't touch in an 8-inch square baking dish and spoon the filling into them, mounding any remaining filling on top.
