How to Make Roasted Apples With Fig Hazelnut Stuffing

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Combine 1/2 cup chopped figs, 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts, 1 tablespoon orange zest, and 1/4 teaspoon allspice in a bowl.
  3. Core 4 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp) using an apple corer.
  4. Place the cored apples in a baking dish. Loosely fill the center of each apple with the fig and hazelnut mixture.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter (melted), and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the apples.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the apples are tender. Let stand for 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  7. Serve warm, spooning the pan juices over the apples. Top with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
