Description

Delicious winter treat not only for Christmas: Baked Apples with Marzipan and Pecans. So good you want to eat them all at once ;)

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium apples
  • 1 tbsp. butter
  • 1 tbsp. sugar
  • 3 tbsp. orange juice
  • 3.5 oz. (100g) marzipan, diced finely
  • 1.7 oz. (50g) pecans, chopped
  • some ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Chop the marzipan into small dices. Chop the pecans and set aside.
  2. Wash and dry the apples. Cut off the top and remove the insides of the apples with a spoon. The remaining sides of the apples should still be about 0.2 inches thick. Cut the insides you took out (without the core) and the part you cut off and cut into small dices. Add the butter into a small pan or pot and heat up. Add the sugar and let melt. Add the apple pieces and toss around to cover with the butter-sugar mix. Add the orange juice and let cook for some time until the apples are a bit softer. Take off the heat and add the chopped marzipan and pecans. Season with some cinnamon and fill into the cored apples. Place the apples in a heatproof pan or casserole and bake for about 20 minutes. Take out of the oven and serve warm with some vanilla sauce or ice cream.

  • Enjoy baking!
