How to Make Baked Apples A La Pierre
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Core the apples, leaving about 1/2 inch at the bottom.
- In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter.
- Stuff the cored apples generously with the oat mixture.
- Place the apples in a baking dish and pour the apple cider around them.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown. Check for doneness with a fork – it should easily pierce the apple.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
- Optional: Sprinkle with chopped pecans or walnuts before baking for added crunch and flavor.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
