Positively motivated by the baked apples I decided to try something which was keeping all the advantages of the original formula:

• the apple – honey – baked combination
• nuts and cinnamon aroma

and eliminated some of the negative elements:

• non uniform cooking of the apple
• nuts placed on the top got a bit burned and did not got much of the apple taste
• difficult to eat in public as you cannot fully enjoy the formula with a little spoon as you could enjoy it with your fingers :)

So start working:

• grate a few unpeeled apples
• add some honey and sugar

• add nuts (in small pieces) and cinnamon
• butter your pan and add the mix
• bake in the oven until you the apples soften

The result is absolutely delicious even if it lacks a bit on the aesthetics. Overall it had a much better rate of success even for my friends which are usually reticent. This is also the reason why I choose to forget the pie crust.

Have fun.

This is a very simple recipe with just a few simple steps:

• start with some clean healthy unpealed apples
• cut the upper side leaving a conical space
• pierce the peal with a fork to allow liquid to get out
• group the apples and add sugar in the cut space
• add a nut on top
