APPLES WITH HONEY AND CRUSHED WALNUTS



Apples With Honey and Crushed Walnuts image

Tradition is a beautiful thing, unless it requires you to make something you don't enjoy making or eating. For me, that's charoset. Classically, it's an apple-walnut mixture (occasionally including a touch of cinnamon or dried fruit, or a combination) that ranges from chunky-relish to chunky-paste, and it's never been my favorite thing on the table. I've always wanted it tangier, crunchier and, well, I wanted a salad. This is that salad. It's meant to be more acidic than sweet, but adjust with vinegar and honey as needed to suit your preference. A note: Nearly everyone who ate this salad said it was their favorite part of the whole meal, which bruised my matzo ball ego, but I thought you should know.

Categories     salads and dressings, side dish

Time 15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup raw walnut pieces or halves
4 Honeycrisp or Pink Lady apples, or a comparable sweet-tart variety
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, plus more to taste
Flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons honey, plus more to taste
Olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Spread walnuts in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Toast walnuts until golden brown and fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. (You can also do this in a toaster oven.) Let cool. Using your hands or a knife if you like, crush or finely chop walnuts. Set aside.
  • Thinly slice apples (with a mandoline or a sharp knife) any way you please. (Rounds are excellent if you don't mind eating the edible core.) Scatter the slices onto a large serving platter or bowl. Drizzle 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar over apples, and season with salt and pepper; give them a little toss and drizzle with 2 tablespoons honey. Taste an apple slice and adjust seasoning with more vinegar or honey, as needed. Sprinkle with walnuts, and finish with a drizzle of olive oil, flaky salt and pepper.

BAKED STUFFED APPLES WITH WALNUTS



Baked Stuffed Apples With Walnuts image

Recipe from the Williams-Sonoma website. These baked apples are a great dessert but I imagine would also be good served for breakfast or a nice weekend lunch on a cold fall or winter day. Enjoy!

Provided by KellyMac6

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup chopped walnuts
4 good-quality red apples, such as Fuji, Braeburn, McIntosh, Rome Beauty
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup apple juice

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350ºF.
  • Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until lightly browned and fragrant, about 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Working from the stem end, use a melon baller to remove the core from each apple, scooping out the stem and seeds and making a deep hole for the filling; work to within about 1/2 inch of the bottom of the apple. Peel the skin from the top half of each apple.
  • In a small bowl, blend together the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon. Mix in the walnuts. Spoon equal amounts of the filling into the centers of the apples. Set the filled apples in an 8-inch square baking pan or other baking pan just large enough to hold them snugly.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the honey with the apple juice, stirring until the honey dissolves. Pour around the apples. Spoon some of the liquid over the sides of the apples to moisten them, but do not spoon over the tops.
  • Bake, basting the sides once or twice with the pan juices, until the apples are tender when pierced, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool and serve in bowls with the pan juices spooned over the tops.
