Ingredients (serves 2):


French baked apples:
  • 2 apples

  • 2 tsp honey

  • 25g room temp butter

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

 

Pommes au four method:


  1. Preheat the oven at 180°C.

  2. Mix the butter an vanilla extract with a spoon until well combined.

  3. Remove the core of the apples using a long vegetable peeler or a knife, trying not to pierce all the way to the other side.

  4. Score the apple all along the middle using the tip of a knife to avoid it exploding as it cooks.

  5. Butter an oven proof dish with half of the vanilla butter. Place the apples on top then fill them with 1 heaped tsp of honey and the rest of the butter.

  6. Add 80-100mL water to the bottom of the dish.

  7. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes.

  8. The water at the bottom will turn into a lovely syrup. Stir it and drizzle over the apples before serving them while they're nice and hot.

  9. Bon appétit!


They're also great with yogurt or porridge if any are leftover.
