Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash the apples and carefully core them, leaving the bottom intact to create a well for the filling.
Place the apples upright in a baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey and ground cinnamon.
Fill the well of each apple with 1 tablespoon of chopped walnuts or pecans and 1 teaspoon of raisins.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the honey-cinnamon mixture into each apple.
Top each apple with a small pat of butter (about ½ tablespoon).
Pour 1 cup of water into the baking dish to prevent the apples from drying out and to create a light sauce.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the apples are tender but still hold their shape.
Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and let the apples cool slightly before serving.
Serve the honey baked apples warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
