Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

4 Granny Smith apples or Rome apples, any hard apple
Syrup
Boil Together:
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons orange juice
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 pinch cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional) -- to top
Heat oven to 350ºF. Mix together syrup ingredients and bring to a boil. Peel the apples,
removing only about the top two inches. Core the apples and place them upright in a
baking dish. Pour the syrup over and into the apples. Cover with foil and bake for 30
minutes. A fork will glide through the apple when done. Sprinkle tops with a little extra
brown sugar and broil for 3 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream, whipped cream, crème
fraîche or plain cream.
NOTE : Simple and perfect without much fuss: one of the all-time great desserts.
