This dessert is ideal to serve instead of a cake at a festive dinner. If you select the best, and season them well with a good blackcurrant jam, baked apples are delicious, especially when served with vanilla ice-cream. It’s a good option for Lent; it also helps you combat constipation during pregnancy or simply to reduce the amount of calories on the menu!

The best apples for baking are medium-sized tart apples like Idared, Semerenko, Jonathan, etc.
Using a sharp knife, cut the stalk, remove the core and cut an upside-down, cone-shaped hole into the apple, but not all the way down.
Arrange the apples on a baking tray with the hole facing up, brush with oil and fill with blackcurrant jam.
Bake in a preheated oven, at a medium temperature until the apples are soft and cracks have formed.
Take the apples out of the oven and arrange on a platter. Allow to cool and dust with powdered sugar.
