Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup pecans
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
4 Gala or Fuji apples
4 cinnamon sticks, plus more for garnish (optional)
2 pints vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spread pecans in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish; toast until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pecans, and set aside (or store in a resealable plastic bag, up to 1 day).
  • In a large bowl, combine sugar, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water. One at a time (to prevent them from turning brown), halve apples through the stem end, core, using a melon baller, and immediately toss with sugar mixture.
  • Arrange apples, cut side down, in baking dish; pour sugar mixture over. Tuck in cinnamon sticks; cover dish with foil. Bake until apples are easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Serve apples with ice cream, topped with pan juices and pecans. Garnish with cinnamon sticks, if desired.

These apples were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just because I used Granny Smith apples.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my apples didn't turn out as caramelized as I would have liked.

I found these apples to be a bit bland. I think they needed more spices.

These apples were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.
