Baked Apples With Nuts, Honey And Cinnamon

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 medium apples (eaters or cookers)
  • 50g ground almonds or hazelnuts
  • 50g roughly chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or your choice)
  • 50g softened butter
  • 4 tablespoons Wildflower honey (plus extra for drizzling)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (plus extra for sprinkling)
  • 4 knobs of butter

TO SERVE

HOW TO MAKE BAKED APPLES

  • Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F ).
  • Wash the apples thoroughly and then use an apple corer or a sharp knife to carefully core them. Stuff a bit of the core into the bottom to save the filling from falling out. Peel the top portion of the apples slightly to allow the flavors to penetrate.
  • In a bowl, combine the ground almonds or hazelnuts, roughly chopped nuts, softened butter, honey, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Mix well until you have a filling mixture that’s well mixed and sticking together.
  • Fill each cored apple with the nut and honey mixture, gently pressing it down to ensure the filling is packed evenly.
  • Place a knob of butter on top of each filled apple and sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon. Arrange the stuffed apples in a baking dish.
  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes. Every 10 minutes, baste the apples with the melted butter and juices from the dish. This will help keep the apples moist and flavorful.
  • After the apples have baked for about 20-25 minutes and are starting to soften, drizzle a spoonful of honey over the top of each apple.
  • Place the apples back in the oven and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are tender and soft. The baking time may vary depending on the size and variety of the apples.
  • Once the apples are soft and caramelized, remove them from the oven. Serve them immediately while still warm. To enhance the experience, place each baked apple in a serving dish, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, sprinkle with toasted nuts, and drizzle with the honey caramel sauce from the baking dish.
  • Indulge in the delightful combination of flavors and textures as you savor each spoonful of baked apple goodness!

These Baked Apples with Nuts and Honey are the perfect way to celebrate the season’s bounty and treat yourself to a comforting dessert that’s both elegant and easy to make. Enjoy the warm and inviting aroma that will fill your kitchen as these apples bake to perfection.

Enjoy!
