Provided by รก-174942

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup dried apricots - (firmly packed) chopped
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup light brown sugar - (firmly packed)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
6 Granny Smith apples
3/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup butter softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine the apricots, walnuts, brown sugar, and butter. Core the apples, making each opening large enough to hold 1/6 of the apricot mixture, peel the top third of each apple. Arrange the apples, cavity-side up, in a 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking dish, and fill the cavities with the apricot mixture. Sprinkle any remaining filling around the apples, pour the orange juice around them, and dot with butter. Bake apples 15 minutes and baste with juices. Continue to bake, basting regularly, until tender, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and let stand about 10 minutes before serving. Transfer to serving bowls, spoon juices over, and serve. This recipe yields 6 servings. Wine suggestion: Sauternes - B&G or Filhot
