Core the apple from the bottom side, keeping the stem intact. Stuff the apples from bottom with mixture of raisins, walnuts and 1/3 of brown sugar. Set apples, stem side up, in Pyrex baking dish.

In a sauce pan, mix brown sugar, water, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir continuously over med-high heat until mixture boils. Then pour over and around apples in Pyrex dish. Set oven to 350 degrees. Place apples in oven, uncovered. Every ten minutes or so, baste apples with the sauce in bottom of dish.
