Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) plus 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup dark rum
1/4 cup apple juice
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon whipping cream
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
2 teaspoons all purpose flour
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1/2 cup almonds, toasted, finely chopped
6 pitted dates, chopped
4 large Golden Delicious apples (about 2 pounds)
Additional melted butter
Whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix 1/4 cup butter, rum and juice in 8 x 8 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Mix sugar, egg yolks, 1 tablespoon cream, ginger, flour, lemon peel and 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in small bowl until smooth. Mix in almonds and dates.
  • Using melon baller, scoop out stem end and entire core of apples, being careful to leave bottom intact. Using vegetable peeler, remove 1-inch-wide strip of peel from around top of cavity. Pack cavities to top with almond mixture. Arrange apples in prepared dish. Brush exposed apple surfaces with additional melted butter.
  • Bake until tester inserted into apple meets little resistance, brushing occasionally with juices and covering loosely with foil if filling is browning too quickly, about 45 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream.

I was a bit disappointed with these apples. The filling was bland and the apples were a bit too tart. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I thought these apples were just okay. The filling was a bit too sweet for my taste and the apples were a bit too soft. I might try a different recipe next time.

I thought these apples were a bit too sweet for my taste. I might try reducing the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

I love baked apples and this recipe is one of my favorites. The dates and almonds add a nice touch of sweetness and crunch. I also like to add a little bit of cinnamon to the filling.

Followed the recipe exactly and the apples turned out perfectly. The filling was sweet and gooey, and the apples were soft and tender. A great dessert for a special occasion.
