Baked Apples with Almonds and Honey
Baked apples with almonds and honey is one of the easiest desserts there is: halve, top, bake, done. Moresca N°03's own apple-and-almond character makes this the most direct dessert pairing on the list.
Ingredients
- 4 apples, halved and cored
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Moresca N°03
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Vanilla ice cream or yogurt, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Arrange the apple halves cut-side up in a baking dish, nestling them close together so they support each other while baking.
- Top each half with a portion of the slivered almonds, a drizzle of honey, a drizzle of Moresca N°03, and a dusting of cinnamon.
- Add a splash of water to the bottom of the dish to keep the apples from drying out as they bake.
- Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until the apples are tender when pierced with a knife and the almonds on top are golden.
- Serve warm, spooning any syrup from the bottom of the dish over the top, with vanilla ice cream or yogurt if you like.
