Fasting is a great test for the human body, but still not a reason to deny yourself sweet treats. Baked apples are perfect for your lean table.
Pick your recipe
You will need
- - 6 small dense sour apples
- - 4 tbsp liquid honey
- - 80 g granulated sugar
- - juice of 1 lemon
- - ground cardamom, star anise, cinnamon sticks, vanilla
- - 3 tablespoons any nuts (pre-fried walnuts, almonds, pistachios, etc.)
Instruction manual
1
In a small saucepan, combine sugar, liquid honey, and lemon juice. Add a slightly incomplete glass of water and spices and simmer for 4-5 minutes. Remove the stewpan from the stove and set aside to cool.
2
Peel the apples, leaving a little peel on top. Cover the baking tray with high sides with baking paper or foil, pour the resulting aromatic syrup into it and lay the apples.
3
Lightly pour apples with syrup and leave to languish for 50 minutes or 1 hour in an oven heated to 210 degrees. Every 7-10 minutes, take out a baking sheet and again pour apples with honey syrup. If it becomes thick, add some water to it.
4
As soon as the apples are browned and covered with a golden crust, sprinkle them with chopped nuts and serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Useful advice
For baking, it is best to choose apples of winter varieties. During heat treatment, they retain their shape well and acquire a fragrant sour taste.
