- Baked apples with nuts and raisins:
- 4 apples;
- 2 tablespoons of walnut kernels;
- 2 tablespoons of light raisins;
- 1 tablespoon of cinnamon;

Instructions
Step 1
Take strong apples of medium size and regular shape. Wash them thoroughly. Use a special tool or a sharp vegetable knife to cut the core. Sprinkle lemon juice on the fruit to prevent browning.
Step 2
Place the apples in a fireproof dish with butter. Place a teaspoon of brown sugar inside each fruit. Bake the fruit in a preheated oven until tender. Remove them from the oven and sprinkle with cinnamon. Before serving, place the apples in the bowls and top with the vanilla sauce.
Step 3
You can cook apples differently. Remove the top of the fruit and set it aside. Select the pulp with a small sharp knife, put it in a separate bowl, after cutting it into small cubes. Sprinkle them with lemon juice.
Step 4
Chop the walnut kernels with a knife in a mortar, turning them into large crumbs. Add them to apples. Pour carefully washed and dried pitted light raisins and cinnamon (dark, sour raisins) into a bowl. Add a tablespoon of liquid honey and mix thoroughly.
Step 5
Place the apple "boxes" in a fireproof dish, greased with butter. Place a small piece of butter inside each and fill the fruit with the nut-fruit mixture. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake until tender. The apple pods should be soft. Remove from oven and place in serving bowls sprinkled with powdered sugar. Place a small bowl filled with vanilla sauce on each plate.
Step 6
To prepare the sauce, heat the milk in the microwave or on the stove. In a saucepan, grind an egg, six teaspoons of sugar, a bag of vanilla sugar, and two tablespoons of flour. Stir the mixture thoroughly until smooth. Pour milk into a saucepan, place on the stove and heat over low heat, stirring constantly. The mixture should thicken, turning into an airy cream. Remove it from the stove and refrigerate. To make the cream more beautiful and uniform, rub it through a sieve. Serve in a gravy boat or pour over apples.
