My example is delicious Baked Apples:

(Serves 4)

Ingredients:

4 Larger English cooking apples 

50g dark muscovado sugar (I used “Rapandora” sugar)

50g Hazelnuts crushed 

50g Raisins 

2 tbsp finely grated dark chocolate 

1/2 tsp ground Cinnamon 

Juice of 1 orange (I used a lemon)

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C (350 degrees F) 

Remove the cores from the apples. Take a knife and make a slit in the skin all around each apple, just above the middle.

Combine the sugar, hazelnuts, raisins, chocolate and cinnamon.

Place the apple on a baking tray and stuff the centers with the fruit and nut mix. Finish each apple with a squeeze of orange/lemon juice.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the apples are soft.

Served with a bit of fresh cream is delicious!
