Apples with walnuts baked in the oven with honey

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 35 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake apples and walnuts in the oven with honey? Prepare your food. Choose firm, large apples, preferably those varieties that do not soften much during heat treatment. Sour varieties will be especially good - Semerenko, Antonovka, Granny Smith.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the apples well and dry. Cut off the top. Using a spoon, scoop out some of the pulp along with the core with seeds, leaving about 1cm thick walls on the sides. You should get “cups” of apples. You can also bake the lids, covering the apples on top, or leave them for compote (along with the removed pulp).

3. STEP 3

   

   Prepare the walnuts. I have them already shelled, you can take the nuts in the shell and peel them yourself. To make the nuts more tasty and aromatic, dry them briefly in a dry frying pan. Grind the nuts in any way - with a knife, in a blender or in a mortar. Don't crush it too much, leave fairly large pieces.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash and dry the raisins first. You don't have to add it at all, depending on your taste. Mix nuts, raisins and honey. Take natural, tasty, high-quality honey. If it is very thick, then warm it up a little in a water bath.

5. STEP 5

   

   Stuff the apples with the prepared mixture. Place them in an ovenproof dish. Pour a little water to the bottom, about 1 cm. If you wish, you can sprinkle ground cinnamon on top of the apples. Preheat the oven to 180°C, top-bottom mode.

6. STEP 6

   

   Bake the apples for about 30 minutes. The exact time will depend on the features of your oven and the variety of apples. Remove the finished apples from the oven. Serve in any form; they are delicious both warm and chilled. Bon appetit!

I really love baked apples! This time I had three apples, two red sweet and one green sour. For the filling I took everything according to the recipe. My honey was thick, so I melted it in the microwave and then mixed it with walnuts and raisins. I also sprinkled it with cinnamon, but it didn’t stick well to the apple and generated a little dust. I should have pressed it tighter) The apples were also baked for half an hour, this time was enough for them to be completely baked. The nuts on top were well roasted, crispy and delicious. The honey bound the filling and it didn't fall apart. By the way, I liked the green apple better; the sourness in this dish is simply necessary. When serving, I added a little mint-lemon syrup on top, I liked it) The apples are simply amazing, very aromatic and tasty. My husband also appreciated the Lenten dessert. In addition, it is also quite filling due to the nuts. I recommend the recipe for Apples with walnuts baked in the oven with honey!
