Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 ounces dried apricots, cut in half,each half cut into thirds
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/3 cup golden raisin
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup cashews or 1/2 cup almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped
1 lemon, juice and zest of
3 large baking apples
1 cup white wine
1/2 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
thick Greek yogurt or sour cream

Steps:

  • Put apricot pieces, wine and sugar in small saucepan; bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes; add raisins and continue to simmer for a further 5 minutes; remove from heat and stir in butter until it is melted; stir in lemon zest and cashews and cool completely (can be prepared to this point up to 1 day in advance; cover and refrigerate)
  • Peel and core the apples, then cut in half lengthwise, resulting in 6 halves with an indentation down the length; as each one is peeled and cored, rub with reserved lemon juice to discourage discolouration; place apples, rounded side down, in glass baking dish just large enough to hold them in one layer; evenly distribute apricot filling amongst the 6 apple halves, mounding slightly at middle
  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • In a small saucepan, bring all the honey syrup ingredients, plus any lemon juice remaining, to the boil; boil rapidly for 5 minutes to thicken syrup slightly, being careful not to let mixture boil over; remove from heat and spoon over apples
  • Bake apples until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 45-55 minutes, basting 3-4 times; allow to cool 20 minutes before serving
  • These baked apples are very rich and an excellent contrast would be some crème fraiche, thick greek yoghurt or sour cream; a dollop on each apple, with some of the juices spooned over, is very nice

I added a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg to the honey glaze and it gave the apples an extra boost of flavor.

These honey baked apples were absolutely delicious! The apples were soft and tender, and the honey glaze was perfectly caramelized. I served them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect fall dessert.
