How to Make Baked Apples Cauthron
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Wash and dry the apples. Peel about 1/2 inch of skin from the tops of the apples using a vegetable peeler.
- Cut a small sliver off the bottom of each apple to create a stable base.
- Brush the peeled top and the inside of each apple generously with lemon juice.
- Cut 1 tablespoon of butter into 4 pieces. Place one piece of butter into the center of each apple.
- In a medium bowl, combine the lemon zest, remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, brown sugar, raisins, walnuts, and cinnamon. Mix well.
- Fill each apple generously with the prepared mixture.
- Arrange the stuffed apples in a small baking dish. Pour apple cider into the bottom of the dish.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the filling is bubbly. You may want to cover the baking dish with foil for the first 20 minutes to prevent browning too quickly.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Top with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
