ROASTED APPLES WITH ICE CREAM
Feel free to add a sprinkle of cinnamon and some brown sugar along with the butter. Some apple varieties hold their shape better than others when cooked, but freshness is the most important factor. If you'd like, you can substitute heavy cream for the ice cream.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix together the breadcrumbs, apricots, cinnamon sugar, butter and zest.
- Using an apple corer, remove the centre of each apple, then score the skin across the equator so they don't collapse during roasting.
- Pack the filling into the apples, then sit them snugly into an ovenproof dish. Mix together the orange juice and 150ml water and pour round the apples. Roast for 40-50 mins until nicely browned and very soft, but still just holding their shape. Serve with the sticky pan juices and custard or ice cream.

ROASTED APPLES WITH CALVADOS AND CINNAMON ICE CREAM
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise down the center, and use a paring knife to scrape the seeds and pulp into the butter. To make sure not to lose any of the seeds, run your vanilla-coated knife through the butter. Add the vanilla pod to the pan, and cook the butter and vanilla over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the butter browns and smells nutty. Remove from the heat, and discard the vanilla pod.
- Cut the apples in half through the core, and carefully remove the core and seeds with a paring knife (or, for a more dramatic presentation, leave the core and stems intact). Toss the apples in a large bowl with the sugars, brown butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, Calvados, and salt. Arrange the apples, cut side up, in a roasting pan. Top each half with the remaining sugar mixture from the mixing bowl.
- Bake the apples about 40 minutes, basting them with the pan juices every 10 minutes, until the flesh has pulled away from the skin and the apples are tender and carmelized.
- Arrange the warm apples on a large platter, and pour all the remaining juices over them. Serve with cinnamon ice cream and glasses of Calvados.
- Cinnamon Ice Cream
- Place the milk, cream, cinnamon sticks, and ground cinnamon in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn off the heat, cover, and let the flavors infuse about 30 minutes.
- Bring the mixture back to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat.
- Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl. Whisk a few tablespoons of the warm cream mixture into the yolks to temper them. Slowly, add another 1/4 cup or so of the warm cream, whisking to incorporate. At this point, you can add the rest of the cream mixture in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly. Pour the mixture back into the pot and return to the stove.
- Cook the custard over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring with a rubber spatula, scraping the bottom and sides of the pan. The custard will thicken, and when it's done will coat the back of the spatula. Strain it and chill at least 2 hours in the refrigerator. The base should be very cold before you churn it. Process in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Note
- I like to leave some of the cores and stems intact-the apples are a little harder to eat, but so beautiful that way.
Tips:
- Choose firm, tart apples for roasting, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
- Toss the apples in a mixture of melted butter, sugar, and spices before roasting to enhance their flavor.
- Roast the apples at a high temperature (400°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve the roasted apples warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or caramel sauce.
- For a healthier version, use Greek yogurt or low-fat ice cream instead of regular ice cream.
- Add a sprinkle of chopped nuts, granola, or dried fruit to the roasted apples for extra flavor and texture.
- Roasted apples can also be used as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or oatmeal.
