Tasty Tuesday
Now I was looking on the internet and found this recipe. It looked so yummy ! It also looked like something that I would like to make. If you try it before I do please let me know how it was. Apple Cranberry Brie Stuffed Baked Apples with Maple Pecan Crunch
Ingredients
For the Baked Apples:
6 large Honeycrisp or Gala apples
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp kosher salt
For the Brie Cranberry Filling:
6 oz Brie cheese, cut into small pieces (170 g)
1/2 cup dried cranberries (75 g)
1/3 cup apple, finely diced (50 g)
2 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp fresh orange zest
For the Maple Pecan Crunch:
1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped (55 g)
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (14 g)
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
For Garnish (optional):
Fresh thyme leaves
Orange zest
Flaky sea salt
Extra maple syrup
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper.
Wash the apples and slice off the tops. Using a small spoon or melon baller, carefully scoop out the cores and some of the flesh, leaving the bottoms intact.
Brush the inside of each apple with lemon juice and maple syrup. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon and salt.
In a bowl, combine the Brie, dried cranberries, diced apple, maple syrup, cinnamon, and orange zest.
Spoon the Brie and cranberry mixture generously into each hollowed apple.
Arrange the stuffed apples upright in the baking dish and bake for 25–30 minutes, until the apples are tender but still hold their shape and the Brie is melted.
Meanwhile, combine the chopped pecans, maple syrup, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt.
Spread the pecan mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet and toast at 350°F (175°C) for 6–8 minutes, stirring once, until golden and crunchy.
Remove the baked apples from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
Top each apple with the maple pecan crunch.
Finish with fresh thyme, orange zest, flaky sea salt, and a light drizzle of maple syrup.
Serve warm while the Brie is soft !
