  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    Pumpkin baked with apple and honey is a very delicate tasting and aromatic dessert. For cooking, the main thing is to choose the right ingredients. It is advisable to use orange pumpkin; it is usually sweeter than green varieties. It should be young, small in size, fresh and juicy. On the contrary, it is better to take apples that are a little hard so that they do not quickly fall apart during baking. Wash the pumpkin, clean it, remove the seeds. Cut the pulp into small cubes.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    It is better to use a glass or ceramic baking dish, but not metal, so that the dessert does not acquire an unpleasant aftertaste from the metal. Grease the mold with butter. Place the prepared pumpkin pieces into the mold. Wash the apples thoroughly, preferably with soap. We remove the peel and remove the seed pod, also cut the pulp into cubes, but slightly larger than the pumpkin, since apples bake faster than pumpkin.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Place the apple cubes in the mold with the pumpkin. Sprinkle lemon juice on top, it will improve the taste of the dish, add a pleasant aroma, and also prevent the apples from darkening.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Pour half a measured amount of honey over the top; you can also use candied honey; it will melt during baking and soak the fruits and vegetables. Since it is believed that honey loses all its beneficial substances during heat treatment, some of the fresh honey can be left and poured over the finished dish before serving.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Sprinkle the pumpkin and apple with ground cinnamon. Pour a little water into the mold so that the fruits and vegetables do not burn and stew faster in the oven. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Cover the top of the pan with foil and place in the oven for 20 minutes. After the specified time, remove the foil, mix the pumpkin and apple and bake for another 10 minutes. A light blush should appear on top.

I prepared a delicious and healthy dessert of pumpkin with apples and honey in the oven in pieces. Making this delicious treat is a pleasure! I cut the pumpkin into pieces of about 3-4 cm. My apples are small, I cut them into slices. I poured fragrant flower honey over everything. I don't really like cinnamon powder, so I added a piece of cinnamon stick to the pumpkin and apples. Bake in a buttered pan with a lid for 20 minutes and 15 minutes under the grill. It turned out delicious, sweet, aromatic. The pieces were all soaked in each other’s juice and honey. The whole family liked this delicate dessert.
