Baked Stuffed Apples With Walnuts
Recipe from the williams-sonoma website. These baked apples are a great dessert but i imagine would also be good served for breakfast or a nice weekend lunch on a cold fall or winter day. Enjoy!!
Steps
Preheat an oven to 350f.
Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until lightly browned and fragrant , about 7 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool.
Working from the stem end , use a melon baller to remove the core from each apple , scooping out the stem and seeds and making a deep hole for the filling.
Work to within about 1 / 2 inch of the bottom of the apple.
Peel the skin from the top half of each apple.
In a small bowl , blend together the brown sugar , butter and cinnamon.
Mix in the walnuts.
Spoon equal amounts of the filling into the centers of the apples.
Set the filled apples in an 8-inch square baking pan or other baking pan just large enough to hold them snugly.
In a small saucepan over medium heat , warm the honey with the apple juice , stirring until the honey dissolves.
Pour around the apples.
Spoon some of the liquid over the sides of the apples to moisten them , but do not spoon over the tops.
Bake , basting the sides once or twic.
