Ingredients

  • 4 Bramley or Granny Smith apples
  • 4 tbsp raisins
  • 2 tbsp mincemeat
  • 2 tbsp ground almonds
  • 570ml/1 pint cider
  • 225g/8oz caster sugar
  • 175ml/6fl oz double cream
  • 55g/2oz butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Trim the base of each apple and, using a corer, take the cores out. Cut a small slit all the way round the middle of each apple horizontally.
  • Mix the raisins, mincemeat and ground almonds and pack them tightly into the cores of the apples.
  • Place the apples in a baking dish and pour over 450ml/16fl oz cider.
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, then leave to stand for 10 minutes.
  • Pour off the cider from the dish into a saucepan and heat it to reduce it in volume until slightly syrupy. Use the syrup to glaze the apples.
  • In a pan, heat the sugar and remaining cider together and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and cook until caramelised to a golden-brown colour, then set aside to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile in a separate pan, bring the cream to the boil. Pour the cream into the syrup, add the butter and stir well.
  • Serve the baked apples with the cream syrup.
