| This recipe was created due to an influx of wonderfully delicious apples I had on hand... [Today (12-18-11) I just found that two sites re-posted my recipe and this photo @ the following links: 1) Driving and Dining; and 2) What's for Dinner] Also, at http://aquieterstorm.tumblr.com/page/44 |
Servings: (4)
Prep: 10 Mins.
Bake: 1 Hr.
Bake: 1 Hr.
INGREDIENTS
4 organic apples (I used Cripps Pink – also called Pink Lady; fall
apples from Washington)
4 tablespoons fireweed honey
1 tablespoon butter, room temp.
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon vanilla extract (I used half of a scraped organic bourbon vanilla bean)
1-1/2 teaspoons organic ground cardamom
¼ teaspoon organic ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons chopped candied pecans
1 teaspoon chopped organic crystallized ginger
Optional:
--French Vanilla Ice Cream
--Caramel Sauce
--4 Whole Maraschino Cherries, with stems
METHOD
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour ¼” deep of lukewarm water into bottom of a square 8”x8” baking dish,
and set aside. Mix the remaining
ingredients in a small bowl, and set aside.
Cut the very top off of the apples and scoop out the core; leaving a well while taking care not to cut all the way through the
bottom. Using a vegetable peeler,
remove a strip of peel around the middle outer diameter section of each apple
(so they can breathe while baking).
Equally fill each apple with stuffing mixture from small bowl.

Tip: I prep all
the ingredients beforehand to make assembling a breeze, except for the apples
that I do lastly to prevent oxidation prior to baking.
