Baked Apples Stuffed With Halvah Recipes

BAKED STUFFED APPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut the stem out of the apple and hollow out the center until it is about 1 1/2 inches wide without going through the bottom. In a small cup, stir together the cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar. Set aside half of this mixture, and mix the rest with the cream cheese and dried cranberries.
• Sprinkle some of the reserved cinnamon sugar into the apple's cavity. Fill with the cream cheese mixture, and sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar on the top. Place the apple in a small baking dish.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the apple is tender enough to easily pierce with a fork.

BAKED APPLES WITH HALVA AND CUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 celcius.
• Add the crumbled halva to a small bowl and add the currants, chocolate chips, orange zest and cinnamon.
• Peel and core the apples and rub them lightly with lemon juice to stop them browning as you prepare the recipe.
• Using your fingers gently push the halva filling into the apples making sure you turn them over and fill them from both sides.
• Place the stuffed apples in a small baking dish which fits them well and is not too large.
• Pour the glass of wine into the baking dish and then pour one tablespoon of kirsch liqueur over each apple if you like.
• Break the cinnamon stick into two pieces and add it to the liquid in the baking dish.
• Bake apples for around 40 minutes or until they are soft. Be careful not to burn the halva stuffing. If it browns and puffs up, cover the dish with foil and continue baking until the apples are done.
• Meanwhile prepare the custard. Dissolve the custard powder in 1 cup of milk and add the sugar.
• Add the remaining milk and heat the mixture in a saucepan stirring with a whisk until it thickens. I add a little more milk to my custard at the end when it has thickened so that it reaches the consistency I like.
• Take custard off heat and lightly press cling wrap over it to prevent a skin forming.
• When apples are done, place one on a serving dish and gently pour a little custard over it. It can be served warm or room temperature.
