Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 orange, juiced and zested
1 lemon, juiced and zested
3 cups port
12 ounces fresh cranberries, washed
1/2 medium red onion, diced
1-ounce fresh ginger, peeled and cut into julienne
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons orange liqueur
4 Rome Beauty apples

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the orange and lemon juices with 1/2 cup of the port. Add the zest and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, onion, 2 cups port, ginger, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Over medium-high heat, cook until the relish thickens, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup port, the orange liqueur, and the reserved orange and lemon juice and zest mixture. Set aside.
  • Cut off the top 1/4-inch of each apple. Using a melon baller, remove the core of the apple, being careful not to pierce the sides or bottom of the apples, to make apple "cups".

Cover with foil and bake until apples are tender, about 30 to 45 minutes.
