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
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
