BAKED APPLES (POMMES BONNE FEMME)
Pommes bonnes femmes is a classic French baked apple dish. Marie-Aude Rose, the Parisian chef behind the much-lauded all-day cafe La Mercerie in New York, learned this version from her grandmother. The tender baked apples are finished with raspberry jam and toasted hazelnuts.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fit apples snugly in a medium oval baking dish (apples should not tip over).
- In a small bowl, combine sugar, butter, and orange zest until well incorporated. Transfer to a piping bag; pipe butter mixture into each apple, dividing evenly. Add 2 tablespoons water to baking dish.
- Bake, basting twice with pan juices, until apples are tender but not falling apart, 40 to 50 minutes.
- Transfer baking dish to a wire rack. Add a heaping tablespoon of jam to each apple; sprinkle each with a scant tablespoon of hazelnuts. Serve warm with cookies, if desired.
