Ingredients
- 4 apples (Golden Delicious or Jonathon)
- 250 g raspberries
- 20 sultanas
- 80 ml (⅓ cup) apple juice
- 2 tbsp caster sugar
- 30 g unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- Icing sugar, for dusting
- Vanilla ice-cream, to serve
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 150°C.
Wash the apples and trim the bases a little so they’ll stand upright. Using an apple corer, gently core the apples, checking inside for any remaining pips. Make a shallow cut all around the apples at the centre. This helps prevent the skins from splitting open during the cooking.
Place the apples in a small baking dish and fill each of them with 3-4 raspberries and 5 sultanas. Spoon the apple juice over the apples, sprinkle with sugar and dot with a few small knobs of butter. Bake for 50 minutes or until soft and a small knife inserts into the apples easily.
Transfer the apples to serving plates, spooning the juice over the top. Top with the remaining raspberries, dust with icing sugar and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
Note
• If you have ample time to cook the apples, try cooking them longer at a lower temperature. They are ready when soft.
