Delicious baked apples in a spiced vintage port sauce! Replace the port with apple cider if you don't want the booze, but the alcohol bakes out anyway. Serve warm or chilled, plain or with cream: warm with vanilla ice cream is my favorite!!! :) Ingredients:
6 baking apples (such as golden delicious, jonagold, pippin, or rome beauty) |
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed |
3/4 cup port wine |
6 whole cloves |
1 stick cinnamon, about 3 inches |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
cream or vanilla ice cream, optional to serve |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375°F. 2. Core apples and pare down about 1/4 way from stem. Place apples in a baking dish. 3. Combine remaining ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over apples. 4. Bake about 45 minutes or until apples are tender. Baste occasionally with sauce in bottom of baking dish. 5. Serve warm or chilled, plain or with cream: warm with vanilla ice cream is my favorite! |
