How to Make Baked Apples Stuffed With Cranberries And Almonds
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut 1/2 inch off the top of 4 medium apples (e.g., Honeycrisp, Fuji) and reserve the tops.
Use a paring knife or melon baller to carefully hollow out the apples, leaving a 1/2-inch thick wall and base. Set aside.
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
Add 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, 2 tablespoons honey, 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom (or cinnamon), 1/4 cup chopped dates, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and 1 tablespoon orange zest.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries soften and the liquid slightly thickens (about 3-4 minutes).
Stir in 1/4 cup slivered almonds.
Spoon the cranberry mixture evenly into the prepared apples.
Place the apples in a small baking dish. Pour 1/4 inch of water into the bottom of the dish.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15-30 minutes, or until apples are tender.
Remove foil, carefully pour off any excess water, and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes, or until apples are very tender and golden brown.
