One of the most delicious and healthy desserts is baked apples. Sometimes they are stuffed with cottage cheese and nuts and spices are added.
Sometimes the result differs from what culinary bloggers write. But this is not a mistake in the recipe. Rather, something is wrong with the technology.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to properly bake apples in the oven.
Here are some tips to help you make this healthy dish the first time.
How to cook
1. Apples should be placed in an oven preheated to 180 degrees Celsius.
2. Apples are chosen not so much by taste (although this is also important), but by characteristics:
- thick skin;
- large size.
3. If the apples are baked whole and without filling, then it is necessary to remove the stem.
4. The filling is chosen to taste, but most often it is cottage cheese with honey and dried fruits or nuts.
5. Place the stuffed or prepared apples on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the apples for 25-40 minutes, depending on the variety and size of the fruit.
Ready apples can be easily pierced with a knife or any other object.
Which variety is better?
The Antonovka apple variety is beyond competition, and it is also recommended to try Granny Smith.
But the most important thing to remember is that a lot depends on the characteristics of the oven.
