Hasselback Apples With Granola Streusel And Caramel Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place an apple half cut-side down on a cutting board and cut thin vertical slices into it, being careful not to slice all the way through. Repeat the process with the remaining apple halves. Transfer the apples to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a small saucepot. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar until fully incorporated. Pour the butter and sugar mixture over the apples. Bake until the apples have softened, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the streusel topping. In a small bowl, add the oats, flour, cinnamon, salt, remaining 2 tablespoons butter and remaining 3 tablespoons brown sugar. Using a fork or your hands, work the mixture together until it forms a large crumble.
• Top each baked apple with the streusel topping, making sure to get some in between the apple slices. Return the dish to the oven and bake until the topping is golden brown, another 10 to 15 minutes. Serve the apples with a scoop of the ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter an 8x8-inch baking dish.
• Combine flour, brown sugar, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
• Cut 4 tablespoons butter into small cubes. Cut butter into the flour mixture using a fork or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add granola and toss to form a clumpy streusel.
• Place 2 skewers or butter knives, a minimum of 1/2-inch thick, parallel to each other on a cutting board. Place an apple half, cut-side down, between the skewers or knife handles.
• Cut thin slices into the apple half, stopping at the skewers or knives to keep the blade from reaching all the way through the apple. Gently separate the slices, being careful not to break the apple half, and place 2 raisins between each slice. Repeat with remaining apple halves.
• Place each raisin-stuffed apple half cut-side down in the buttered baking dish. Sprinkle apple juice and white sugar on top. Cover apples with the granola streusel. Scatter remaining butter on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and streusel is browned and toasty, about 55 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 2- to 3-quart baking dish. Halve the apples; cut out the core and place flat-side down. Using a sharp knife, make slits in each apple half about 1/4 inch apart; do not cut through to the bottom. Place the apples flat-side down in the prepared baking dish.
• Combine 2 tablespoons each butter and brown sugar in a bowl and mash together with a fork; spread the mixture over the tops of the apples. Cover with foil and bake until just tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar with the flour, lemon zest, salt and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a bowl until clumpy.
• Uncover the apples and carefully insert the fig slices into the slits in the apples; sprinkle with the flour mixture. Bake, uncovered, until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender, 20 to 25 more minutes.
• Combine the honey with the vanilla bean, cinnamon stick and 2 tablespoons water in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook until the honey is infused, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; discard the cinnamon stick and vanilla bean and stir in the pomegranate seeds. Transfer the apples to plates and serve with ice cream and the pomegranate syrup.

Steps:

• HEAT oven to 350 degrees F. Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and nutmeg in large bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 3/4 cups crumb mixture; press remaining crumb mixture onto bottom of an ungreased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Bake 15 minutes.
• ARRANGE apples over partially baked crust. Mix sweetened condensed milk and 1/2 cup caramel topping until blended. Pour evenly over apples. Add walnuts to reserved crumb mixture; sprinkle over apple layer.
• BAKE 45 to 50 minutes or until apples are tender. Cool in pan on wire rack. Serve warm topped with vanilla ice cream and remaining caramel topping.

Steps:

• Heat a large frying pan over a medium heat, add the apples, toss in the sugar and fry for a minute or two tossing occasionally, followed by the cinnamon. Add the butter, toss to melt and then stir through the maple syrup.
• While the apples are cooking heat another dry frying pan over a medium high heat. Add the oats and toast for 1 minute in the pan, tossing to evenly cook the oats. Add the coconut oil, maple syrup and cinnamon, stir through and allow to cook for another minute.
• Spread the yoghurt in the base of a shallow bowl, top with the granola followed by the stewed apple and drizzle with caramel sauce from the pan.
