Baked Apples With Fruit And Nuts Recipe

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 190 C/375 F/gas mark 5.

2. 2

   Remove the centre core of the apples, leaving 5mm (1/4in) uncut at the bottom.

3. 3

   Run the tip of a sharp knife round the circumference of the apple, just to pierce the skin.

4. 4

   This stops the apples bursting in the oven.

5. 5

   Combine all the ingredients except for the butter and juice, and spoon it into the cavities of the apples; place the excess in the bottom of the buttered baking dish.

6. 6

   Place the apples on the fruit in the dish, dot the top with butter and pop in the oven for 45 - 60 min.

7. 7

   Every 10 min, add in 2 tbsp of apple juice to the bottom of the dish, and spoon the juices over the apples.

8. 8

   Serve piping warm with double or possibly clotted cream.
