Ginger Baked Apples Recipes

10-MINUTE GINGER CAKE "BAKED" APPLES

Steps:

• Using a spoon, remove enough of the interior of each apple so that the walls are about 1/2-inch thick all around, including the bottom, and there's enough of a well for the cake batter. Place the apples in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave the apples until just warm, 20 to 40 seconds, then remove and set aside.
• Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, baking powder, milk, vegetable oil, and maple syrup in a medium bowl until just combined. Spoon or pour the batter inside the apples, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top of each. Microwave the apples in the same microwave-safe dish until the batter rises and sets, about 2 minutes 20 seconds. Dust the top edges of the apples with a little fleur-de-sel and let cool slightly, then serve with Apple Cider Caramel Sauce and vanilla ice cream.
• Mix the sugar and lemon juice in a deep nonstick saucepan, place over medium heat and cover. Have a pastry brush and a small bowl of water nearby to brush the sides of the pot of any granules of sugar.
• When the sugar starts to brown, swirl the pan to ensure even browning until the sugar is amber in color, 5 to 6 minutes. Pour in the apple cider -- step back, because there will be sputtering.
• Add the butter. Swirl the pan to melt the butter, then add the heavy cream, cinnamon and ginger. Remove from the heat. The caramel will continue to thicken off the heat. Stir before serving. Makes 1 1/2 cups. Can be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. Reheat gently on the stove top or in the microwave.

Steps:

• In a bowl stir together the butter, the brown sugar, the ginger, the pecans, and the raisins. Core the apples, peel the top third of them, and rub the peeled flesh with the lemon. Spoon the ginger mixture into the apple cavities, mounding it, arrange the apples in a deep microwave-safe dish, and microwave them, covered, at high power (100%), rotating the dish halfway through the cooking, for 8 minutes. Transfer the apples to 2 plates, spoon the cooking liquid over them, and serve the apples with the ice cream.

GINGERED BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bring the apple juice, vinegar, cinnamon, ginger and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan. Simmer for 5 minutes.
• In another small saucepan, melt the butter. Add the bread crumbs and toast for 1 minute. Stir in the brown sugar. Core each apple and peel the top. Place, peeled side up, in a roasting pan. Fill the apples with raisins and top with the bread-crumb mixture. Pour half of the juice mixture over the apples and roast for 45 minutes, or until the apples are soft but not mushy.
• Remove the apples and place the pan on top of the stove over high heat. Pour in the remaining juice mixture and bring to a boil, scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon. Serve the apples warm with sauce and cream.
