How to make baked apples

Use an apple that will keep its shape once baked like a Granny Smith. Turn your oven on at 250°F/175°C

Cut the top of and hollow out your apples. Make sure you don't cut thru the bottom of your apple. Peel and dice the top and the part you took out of the apple minus the core.

Apple, hazelnuts, raisins, sugar and cinnamon

Fill your apples with the mix. All of the mix won't fit into your apples. Shame.

Either braid your pie dough over the filled apples or just cut a piece of dough to cover and make some holes to let the steam out.

Baste with an egg and sprinkle with a bit of sugar.

The rest of the filling and the rest of the pie dough are going to be baked also.

Baste with an egg alongside the pie dough to make it stick.

Baste with an egg and press down the edges with a fork. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake apples and this miniature pie in the oven for 30 minutes.

Serve with ice cream if you feel naughty.
