If you decide to diversify your menu with seasonal recipes, then it's time to cook something from apples. Baked apples with honey and nuts are an ideal option for all those who decided to limit themselves in traditional apple baking, but still prefer sweet treats.
Baked apples with honey and nuts
The only difficulty that you will encounter during cooking is the preparation of apples. After cleaning the fruit from the core with the seeds, it remains for a little - to mix the nuts with honey and place in the resulting "cup".
Ingredients:
- apples - 6 pieces;
- honey - 65 ml;
- butter - 25 g;
- walnuts - 195 g.
Preparation
Using a small knife, cut out a part of the core from the apples, not cutting the fruit to the bottom, thereby forming a "cup". Peel the kernels of nuts into smaller pieces, mix with honey and place in the cavity of each of the apples. Pour all honey and put a small piece of butter on top. During baking, the oil will mix with honey and turn into caramel.
Apples with honey and nuts are cooked in an oven heated up to 180 degrees. The baking time varies from 30 to 45 minutes and depends on the size and variety of the fruit itself.
