By 17th-Century Baked Apples
“[T]here were baked apples and berry tarts and pears poached in strong-wine.” – A Clash of Kings
Just reading through the ingredients of this recipe I knew it was going to be a winner: cinnamon, sugar, melted butter, apples. That’s it!
And the steps were very simple:
- Step 1: mix the butter, sugar, and cinnamon together.
- Step 2: Slice apple in half and remove core
- Step 3: Put butter mixture on apples
- Step 4: Bake in oven for an hour
I was worried about putting the apples in the oven for such a long time, but they didn’t burn at all and were SO delicious! They weren’t exactly pretty once they were done, but who cares as long as they taste good?
Taste: 10/10
We’re keeping this recipe! You really can’t go wrong with butter, cinnamon, sugar and apple. The apples were soft, and the cinnamon and sugar worked so well with them!
Difficulty: Easy
A very simple recipe with few ingredients. The most difficult part is cutting the apple, so not bad at all!
Cost: Cheap
You may already have all of these ingredients on hand. We purchased the apples, but had the rest in our pantry and fridge.
